Those Harbor Freight skates are the bee's knees. No problems sliding the B into the corner. I put a car cover on after these pics were taken.

Next: ride the motorcycle for another week or so and then put that one to bed too.

To everything there is a season.

very snug place for a pretty auto

i know you are a careful and judicious driver but suggest you put some locaters /stops for the other automobiles

some folks like to hang a ball on a string from the ceiling located so that it will just touch the center of the windscreen when the vehicle is at the desired distance

it takes the worry out of being close .

The Suzuki will be stored in my 12x18' shed, which can hold quite a bit of stuff. I'll first remove the bike's battery so it can be placed on a tender in the garage, which does not get below freezing even in the dead of a Pennsylvania winter. I'll rotate my two tenders between the batteries for the motorcycle, the B and my riding mower.


Michael - Agreed. Not evident in the second picture are the wheel chocks that I have (temporarily) fastened to the floor. They provide a positive stopping mechanism for both vehicles. I also have stickers on each side wall as a visual aid. Something that is evident in the second picture is a gift from my brother - a plastic stop sign that flashes when you make contact with it. My wife drives the CR-V, and she is a careful driver. So, when it comes to protecting the B, I've got redundancy+ in place here.
