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...

Oh and back in the day near my neck of the woods you could have taken your car here:

No such luck. Mine is just the two door sedan, not the Starlite Coupe.
