Last year I put a tarp underneath one of my cars, parked in a car port. Imperialist Paul, et al:
I am fortunate enough to have dry,
concrete floor barn [unheated except for an isolated shop at the
rear] that I store my cars in and, I found that the concrete has a
breathing factor as well -although I start and 'rotate' the cars around on
nicer winter days here in New England, just as a matter of course --I have
wondered about concrete-to-tire issues, and not just flat spots-- though I do
not leave the cars in one place long enough for that to happen,
generally.....anyway, though inside, I lessened my moisture/mold
concerns a few years ago by going to the local Lowe's and for 5 bucks a sheet
for 7/16 sheathing, I layed the 4 X 8 sheets out on the barn floor butt to
butt and in conjunction with a GOOD cover, I have been able to
stay unscathed and the cars remain turnkey all winter, and as
fresh as when I 'rested them' for the season....just the old .02 from gorgeous
New England today where the 80+ degree weather has been very good to
the '56 Imperial and her touring....and thank you, too, WPC as well as Mr.
Exner, for I NEVER tire of looking at
her....
