TomE_1953 Posted September 17, 2001 Share Posted September 17, 2001 I just purchased a 1953 Buick Roadmaster (MINT) a few months back and now with Winter around the corner I want to prepare 'her' for 6 months of storage.<BR>Any tips would be appreciated.<BR>I'm getting one of those "car-bags" (www.carbags.com), jacking her up on blocks to get the weight off the tires - etc., removing the battery. Also putting a can of RID inside the car to combat moisture.<BR>Open for any other tips on this subject. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Stoneberg Posted September 17, 2001 Share Posted September 17, 2001 I would think about the Car Capsule not a car Bag. it will help keep the car dry and protected too. <BR>Look at <A HREF="http://www.carcapsule.com" TARGET=_blank>Car Capsule home Page</A>.

The Old Guy Posted September 17, 2001 Share Posted September 17, 2001 I buy WD-40 by the gallon and use a spray bottle . Put the car on 4 jack stands and start at the front and go to the rear spraying EVERYTHING!!! My cars sit on a cement floor in an unheated building for 6 months and when I take them out in the spring they show no signs of rust. I NEVER start them after fogging them and have left one as long as 3 years without any visible damage. I also spray the chrome and the wheels ,as the wheel nuts have a tendency to show rust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
