As the title says, I need to get my blue 914 out of the weather.
I looked in to expanding my garage or building a detached garage and the zoning where I live is prohibitive. To keep my car on my property but get it out of the weather I am thinking of buying a new 14 or 16 foot enclosed car trailer. I have room to park one in my backyard. I would plan to paint and preserve it with lanolin oil spray. I think I need some kind of ventilation to keep moisture from being trapped inside. Any advice on what to look for, brands, things to avoid? Thanks for any tips! John |

Jobsite trailers are cheaper and roomier.. They typically are 8' wide so you don't need a special permit to move them. If you are really only going to use it for storage, this is better than a car trailer cause it let's you walk around or work on the car.
here's an example.. you'll need to build a ramp in the rear... http://sfbay.craigslist.org/pen/hvo/5095569017.html |
