storage advice
I have avoided the obvious for some time... but now I must face it. My 10 year old '96-Z must retire from the duty of "daily driver". 
With just under 150,000 miles, it just doesn't tackle the 100 miles / day commute like it did when it was younger.
I now find myself driving one of the new Chevy HHR's. It's not totally ugly. And it gets 35 mpg for me. But rest assured, the Camaro is still in my possession. My plan is to take a couple of years to slowly restore it, and maybe give it some new muscle. Make it a Friday / Sunday cruiser.
My problem is this... How do I keep the Camaro from turning into one big pile of rust? I have a GM car cover, but that obviously isnt enough. I don't own a garage. Portable garages don't have a floor, making them as useless as a car cover. Storage facilities are kinda expensive.
Any suggestions??
