Hi neighbor!
 
I've used this car bag for 16 years now.  Keeps the car and motorcycle sealed and the mice on the outside looking in!  Unfortunitely these are not available anymore.

I have seen these car bags at Carlisle. Even have a small fan to keep the bag pressurized. That is the ultimate in protection.

I just got my new Ecklers C3 fall/ winter catalog.  Page 5 shows a Car Capsule.  It looks to be a car bag that has a fan and is inflated.  $400 bucks.

The firm I purchased the bag from, quit making them a while ago.  The demand must not have been enough to support it. I think I spent $125.00 for it.   I did buy a large canister of "crystals" in a vented tin shell you heat up before sealing the bag that sucks up any moisture.

Vette(s): White '79 Corvette. It's a driver.
The "crystals" you referred to sound interesting. Can you get ' em at any old auto parts store?
I have 4 canvass bags with unknown contents that I bought from Mid America. They're supposed to absorb moisture. I leave them inside the Vette when it's not in use.
Let me know about the crystals when you can.
