Re: anyone used dehumidifiers for keeping rust away?
I suppose there are two ways to do what you are looking for...
1) remove humidity - using a dehumidifier
2) stop condensation - use a small heater to keep the car warm
I have no experience with either when trying to keep a car rust free

Why not go onto The Samba or one of the European sites as this is a major problem in their areas,
They land up with climatised Garages all the time.
