Default Moisture problem??

I just went out to take some pics of my LT header clearance for another memember and my car is loaded with moisture underneath the car? It's been in my garage since October. I know it's been warm out the past two days, but is there anything I can do to prevent this so my car doesn't rust out? It doesn't get the wind to dry it up so I did put my fan blowing under the car on high for now! It didn't do this last year! My garage is securely closed and it does not have any heat. Thanks

I usually park my car on a rubber mat in the garage in the winter. You want to create some type of Vapor barrier between the Concrete and the bottom of the car. If you can't park it on a mat keep the fan running all the time. When it gets cold again you can turn it off but when it starts warming up again turn that fan back on.

Yeah Iwas thinking that would work. I have carpet squares I park my tired on, but I'll have to roll out an area rug I've got in my basement tomorrow. I was pissed when I seen my header flange from the cheap BBK h-pipe all surface rust. The pipe has less than 500 miles on it. It's only 4 months old and has never seen water. Thank You.
