On blocks- advice?

Breathable car cover in the shed is fine.

How far from the coast is the farm? Out west where most of my Monaros are the biggest problem is rats, cars don't rust. I have a few HK Monaros out in the weather, been like that for 10+ years, no sign of rust.

its about 100 kays from the coast. can get fairly wet in winter but nice and dry otherwise. Id imagine rats would be a problem. I found heaps of rat poop around the heater box on an HZ donor that i picked up off a farm on the south coast!

Its definitely not worth carcooning it though. Its due for major rust work and and a lick of paint

As long as it's on a concrete slab and has a roof over it that's all you need... uless you can put some walls up...

DO NOT cover it with a car cover and especially a tarp for long periods..... I found out the hard way when I spent 4 yrs in PNG. Interior goes mouldy and your car will rust to buggery...

thanks absinth. i just needed some confirmation that it would cause bad sweating and moisture

Go to Rentokil and buy somke of those black plastic rat bait stations. You can buy the blocks for them in bulk or in small packets but Rentokil won't sell them to you. Use a mixture of green blocks (multi-feed) and blue (one-feed kills). Green are grain based, blue are chemical (and residual) and you'll need the green to attract them, or use Toblerone pieces with the blue blocks. If you have native animals or cats around that eat the rats don't use the blue baits, use only green. If you keep bait up to these you won't have rat problems again.
