Tom, what kind of "shed" do you have your Studi in? Does it hold up with your type of winters-like snow, wind???

It's a Round Top from Menards, 12 x 20 that I bought on sale a year ago. It's the second one I bought from Menards, and the first one is still up after 10 years, right behind this one. I should have just bought another metal shelter that Menards sells for about $800. The Round Top is too flat on top, so it collects a lot of snow, and you loose too much space with the slanted side walls. It's also taller than it needs to be. I layed down plastic over the ground, and up the sides about a foot, then layed down 3/4" plywood, then covered it with good used free carpet. It makes it much nicer inside and I can lay under the car without getting dirty or too cold.
Thanks msmodela. I wish the paint was as good as it looks in pictures, but the restorer got a bit slack on the final prep before the paint.
Hey we need more photos of your car Tom. If I have your car correct it's even cooler from the side...
