I am in the process of getting the funds together (since I spent a great deal of my modest funds for the Vette) for a nice large enclosed and climate-controlled workshop building. (30x60)
For reference, I live just out of city limits on a 15 acre farm with horses (quarter, shetland, throughbred & Dutch Warmbloods) with a gravel/etc type driveway. I don't want any problems with the gravel so I will drive very slow. The roads of course are completely concrete & asphalt paved but my drive is still old gravel. (not much loose) - In any case, I have the choice of parking it under a open-sided pole-type barn with a custom high-quality cover (next to my restored 1950 Ford 8N tractor that I did last year) Talk about Ford vs. Chevy! or leave it out in the drive with just the cover. Problem is that there is a great deal of the normal dust and dirt from living in the country and it will make it hard to keep it clean. (hence the reason for the building in the first place) The horses are not near nor in the pole barn - but always in the large pastures. Should I look into getting a portable drive carport like those at Wal-Mart or elsewhere or will it be ok just in the drive?
In any case, it is a beautiful & proven SCCA 2001 Solo-II Divisional Winner and I want to take good care of it. Not to mention that this is my first Vette.
Thanks,
Andy
