Thought it was time to get sexy out of hibernation.

I cant say i was over enthusiast about storing the old girl in a container after hearing all the horror stories about damp and sweating etc but these modern container are spot on, no damp or sweating in these .


also managed to get the other old knacker onto the dolly and wheeled out of the garage

A friend of mine stored cars in containers for years. I believe he used ex-refrigerator containers as they had insulation and he ran a domestic dehumidifier a few hours a week just to be sure.

A number of years ago a guy i knew put a really nice RS2000 in a container and when it was opened a few years later it was no longer in a nice condition, rust had well and truly taken over.
