Looks all good Rob, bummer about sis-n-laws vehicle, maybe you can turn her onto a Jag!

I am sure you know this but I'll toss it out here, while storing battery in basement, do not let it rest on the concrete floor, place a piece of 2x6 or someother type of wood between the two.
I'm just glad my wife offered her one of our vans and not the Jag! That'd almost be grounds for a divorce (or the right to go by a new '11 XKR. Hmmm....)

As for the concrete, I already have a stick of 2x6 in the basement

Crappy Tire desiccant? Score! So long kitty litter, here comes the desiccant. I think I'll place it in a larger plastic container to collect any water. I won't be in to the car that frequently to change it.

And the kittys of the world thank you for not causing a litter shortage this coming long cold hard winter. Keeping their legs crossed for months on end would give them cramps.

Typically the desiccant will absorb the moisture and shouldn't drip. I think the kit CT sell is self enclosed.

Did you end up getting the car undercoated? You got me thinking about doing mine...........

Why kitty litter? Also what about brakes?
