Default Space - there is a limit

I have three tractors (782, 1811, and 149). And I like them all, and dont want to part with any of them.

But I really only have enough inside space to store 1 (maybe 2 if I want to move it every time I do something in the shop).

Sitting outside, even covered, seems like will just turn into a pile of parts eventually.

Any tricks to making it viable to store outside? Or do I just have to resign myself to selling off a couple....

Get a cheap metal shed from Lowe's and build a wood floor for it, I did one for my neighbor about 3yrs ago and it's holding up well.

Amish built sheds are here locally and fairly cheap if you could afford the monthly payment... or as Tim stated you can get those cheap metal sheds for 600$ or so. Worthwhile investment in my book.

Lost two metal buildings to a snow storm here in '12.

The two without heat couldn't handle the 24+" of wet heavy stuff...

Out of all the things in them the only thing that survived was the Allis Chalmers 5050 tractor. Little dent in the rear fender, other then that all vehicles and equipment stored inside were considered a total loss.

Local city don't like that at all, I even offer to cover it with prefinished lap siding (Canexel) and build a roof to make it look like a shed, they say NO!

They can't collect taxes on none permanent shelter but if you let it park on a low profile wheeled frame they are $crew

Nice ice fishing cabin you got there...

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
