Garage Air Circulation

[optim8]

During the winter my Griff spends alot of time sat in the garage. As the temperatures drop the amount of moisture that builds up over the car increases. Fine, I know the bodywork is fine but a car with a damp chassis for 6 months can't be much cope.

As much as I can see the benefits of a Carcoon, I feel this is a little extreme. Surely is it not the case that if I install low wattage fan this will help circulate the air and so reduce the effects.

So my questions are:

1) What do you do (other than take the car out!) to try and over come the winter effects?
2) If anyone has installed a low wattage fan, where did they get it from.

Thanks in advance..

My garage is pretty old. It has concrete pillers with concrete panels slotted down between the panels. The way the roof is done it actually overhangs the walls and is suspended on a metal frame which creates a small void all around it.

For me I don't want to completely lay the car up (i.e. on axle stands wheels off etc..) as if the weather is good I want to go out. A dehumidifer I think will probably blow up as because of the void in the roof, it will really be trying to dry outside and inside!

Is it not just the case the it's cold still air that causes the condensation, something which a fan would overcome? Every year I go to the Classic Car show at the NEC(not long now!!), and spend ages floating around the Carcoon stands trying to be sold a car sized tent with 3 PC cooling fans stuffed in one end. I just know there must be a cheaper solution.

So it's looking like a Carcoon is the way to go here. There is actually a few companies out there offering these solutions and I'm not sure which is the best to go for. The Carcoon seems to be the most popular but as it has no structual frame isn't it a real fuss to get the car out of the thing? There is also the Cair-O-Port system which does use a frame. Anyone have preferences over either? Cheers.
