Wayne R Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Just in case you dont know this ,card board is one of the best insulations available ,and its usually free. For years now i have used this fabulous product when storing my classics,---in fact i stored eight classics in New Zealand-- for 11 years while i lived in US,---1991 to 1992, and where i use it is under the car on concrete floors, it provides terrific insulation because it has a corrugated cavity of air between the layers, and stops cold damp situations , especially if your floor does not have a damp proof insulation under concrete. Now -- i guess you in US are getting ready to put your baby to sleep for about six months so thought this may help,--dont ask me how i know--as i was born in one of the worlds southern most cities --Invercargill. A wet cold damp place to live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bhigdog Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 Also great when working under the car. Warm, soft, slippery (OK, get your minds back on cars) and it's way better than a creeper......Bob 6 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dad told me a story years ago about a guy laying under his car, working on it, somewhere in AZ, when he noticed a rattlesnake keeping him company. The snake never hit him, he just did a lot of damage to himself getting out from under the car too quickly. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
