Re: Instant Garages (paul79)
I spent a couple winters in VT before moving to CT. I have seen those all over the place with vintage cars in them. They even hold up to the snow fall. Wish I had room for one. My garage is very small.

Mine has seen everything the Northeast could throw at it for seven or eight years and its fine.
I don't know if I'd trust that thing in the wind with a 5 grand paint job. Only thing I can think of is to bulid your own with some wooden posts and a tin roof. It would probably take a little longer to build than the temporary garage, but I bet it's alot sturdier. Just my .02

If you want to go a bit more permanent but still portable, you could try a steel building, like: http://www.futuresteel.com/main.htm
Their prices are in American $, not Canajun Loonie Bucks. :cry

Re: Instant Garages (paul79)
Best thing I ever did. Have covered my boat and other toys for 6 years now here where it gets to -40 degrees and lots of snow with no trouble. The skewers don't work as the things are like kites in the wind. I use ratchet straps and connect them to the frame of the vehicle or whatever is inside. They are easy to put away and take about 6 hours to put up from scratch. There is also resale value and they can be moved quite easily.
