Bought a beater car so that pretty much set. I was looking into renting a storage unit but might just throw a cover over her till spring and start her up every week to run.

Looking into a waterproof car cover. Whats a recommended site and cover. I dont want ANY water to seep through and it seems like all of them do. I understand it needs to breath too but I d rather remove the cover every week or two.

Also, what does everyone on the forum do to "Store" their mustang for the winter. I know some guys have to drive their stangs in the winter and other (Down South) dont worry about snow.

Also what the best cover to get and a site to order.

Thanks!

 

I had a '99 Vert that I stored outside in the winter.

Bought my cover from autoanything.com. Fill the tank and add a bottle of gas stabilizer. Try to park it on asphalt or concrete to cut down on the moisture that you'd get from dirt or grass. I put a moth ball block under the hood and empty soup cans over the tail pipes to keep the critters out. I stored mine from late November to early March without disconnecting the battery or putting it on blocks and it started up fine every spring.

First 2 years of my 2005 I put it in a 10'x20' storage unit for $90/month. Had to back it in cause of the narrow path between the buildings. Same process except I skipped the coffee cans and just put a moth ball block on the floor of the unit.

 

lol im getting ready for winter too........ im going to wax the sh*t out of it today!!!!!!!

Thanks, I m guesting its betterto have a cover that can breath vs one thats waterproof? Also thats a great idea with the moth ball.

 

Very true But you will still get Moisture. I always Buy the plastic painters floor covering to keep even more under car moisture. I even do this in my garage that is not sealed.

 

Go with the all-weather. What you need outside is a very clean car to start with and a tight, well-fitting cover. Wind is your enemy. Gets dust and dirt under the cover, and if the cover is moving, it is scraping that trapped dirt across your paint.

My '99 was a convertible, so I was also having to take the snow off so the weight would not sag the top.

 

hmm, still projected to be 65* around here for christmas, don't know what you guys are talking about

 

I too am getting ready for winter! Truck pulled up the other day with all the necessary equipment needed to survive the harsh winters here in TEXAS.
