Portable garages?
Looking to purchase a portable garage to house my zl1; I currently only have a open car port available, but there are cats and all kinds of critters that come out at night (I live in the boonies). I'll be moving within the next couple of years but need something temporary to keep animals off my car...
Been looking at shelterlogic protable garages, but wondering if anyone here has any other ideas/suggestions. I can build one as well but I prefer something temporary. Thanks guys!

We bought a ShelterLogic 10x20 enclosed, not specifically for the Camaro, but have put it in there a few times. It's a snug fit, width wise, not undoable, unless you're "big boned". Debated a DIY project, but ready to go was just easier.
Didn't use the included stakes as it's on the cement pad at the back of the shop and there's solid anchor points to tie to. Used tie-downs instead, has held up good so far, through some summer hail, and heavy, heavy downpours. Would I trust it to put my baby in for the winter? HELL NO. Could it hold up? Not willing to find out. But I'm extremely particular about my Camaro. |

I stored my boat in one for a couple of winters. Keeps the elements off, but if the stray cats want in there isn't much to stop them.

They know they shouldn't be near the Camaro, super smart dogs. They always look super guilty when they do it. |

I had something similar to this delivered by an Amish shed place. I love it. I even ran an electric cord out to it and put an old garage door open in it. Depends on your budget though.

I had a shelterlogic loved it. get the vent kit. 12x20x8 the 5th gen fit in it great. get some water pipe foam insulation and put it on the pipe near were you open your door so ti wont ding it if you open it to wide.
