Default Where can I put my hard-top now? Help!

Hi all,

Well, during the winter, I've had my garage converted into an office. I don't have spare room in the shed and was wondering, would it be okay to leave my hard-top in the back-garden, under a water-proof cover? Any other ideas as to where I can store it, would be very welcomed.

The sun is shining today too!

Cheers

Dave

Aha, very good. Is there any way to lock down the hard-top?

Get an Auto-Pak cover and hang it on a wall.

I think they sell on ebay.

loft space in the garage roof?

mines either going to sit in amongst the rafters of the garage roof as dad has made a little platform for his old hardtop for his stag. Or its going to sit on the hardtop stand infront of his car.

I think that Aquilaeagle stores his outside under an illegal patio. Another idea would be in a garden shed.

I wouldn't put it outside, parts of it could rust/ go mouldy.

I'd go for the wall hanging idea, or do what I do and store it in someone elses house

I have made a small patio behind the shed for it. I've bought a stand / trolley from eBay which will show up tomorrow and also bought a cheap outdoor car cover from Argos.

With some strong velcro, I have made a purpose built cover / bag for it.

Properly wrapped up, I can't see any harm coming to it but will get a very regular airing.
