You could try putting the car in your garage or driveway
LOL true. Unfortunately, the mice here are out of control (seems like it might be getting better, maybe...) and I am constantly battling to keep them out of the lawnmowers and cars outside. they got in the 3 once and the Corolla like 3 times... So I am hesitant to put stuff outside especially if it isn't used very often.
I think I would have to garage a Monte since they rust just from being outside and hearing a forecast with snow... Currently there are zero open garage spaces since the RAV has a permanent spot, and the good tractor is in the garage. Kevin made a good point that if I got a decent shed for the tractor, that would open a spot. Now I have to get a shed... What I really need is like a 2 and a half car garage. Probably not going to happen since that costs more than both cars combined...

Peppermint oil, crushed red pepper, and cinnamon can help keep mice away.

Plus the old standby: moth balls.

Kevin, while you are at it, can you grab this on your way back too?

Not bad. Curious about what it looks like underneath. I have realized that "no rust" on CL is usually referring exclusively to the painted body.

Seriously, worst pics. Looks like one is blue, and one used to have paint??? Neither have stock rims. At least 1 has an engine... Not sure either run/drive...
