It worked a couple of times before it broke, I think. Anyway, I put the Cobra in her bag and then got my shop vac out and tried to suck the air out of the bag just like Ron Popeil did with the Seal-A-Meal bag and the stinky fish. Well, it didn't work and, frankly, I looked pretty dumb even to myself. So, I gave up. BUT, had it even half way worked, I was then going to fill the bag up with nitrogen, vac it out again, fill it back up, vac it out again, and then I would feel quite good about myself keeping her in a nitrogen filled bag over the winter.

Have you ever considered using the wraping plastic? The same stuff they use to wrap motors for shipment. This winter is my first one using the radiant heat system in the floor of my garage. It was 63.9 in there at 37% humidity. I have driven my car during the winter as long as it was clear and the roads dry. Think you get people staring at you in warm weather???
