Help with condensation problem
I have a 84 that I almost always in the winter have a condensation problem on the inside of the car. I have to use a water blade to get the water off. Any ideas?

Do you store your car outside is it covered outside is the cover bright or dark in color or is it in a garage is the garage heated (tell us a little more)

It is stored outside. depending on the weather it is usally covered. the weather stripping is new. I was thinking it might be the cover locking in the moisture

Your car acts like a ice cold glass of tea on a hot sunny day outside
The car cover heats up from sun light but the car under neath does not heat as fast and winter days are to short to heat up enough
Where hot and cold meet you get frost and or moisture

I guess I will have to leave it uncovered in a sunny spot or tell my wife hers has to go outside. O 
n second thought I will find a sunny spot. Need someplace warm to sleep not with the dog!!!

You would be better off to leave a window part way down to keep the air temprature inside the car as close or same as the outside air temp!
