I think a vacuum sealed bag would be better than having to keep air in a bubble. Interesting idea though. https://www.walmart.com/ip/5-Vacuum-...23-6/120509939

lol! It's a small fan at the front, that constantly is running, maintaining temp and circulating the air. I feel the noise of the fan too (even as mild as it is), will keep rodents away as well.

In 2011 I rebuilt my house and placed my cars in storage at my mother-in-laws house. It was very damp and had rodents but I had few options. I used these and they worked perfectly. They kept the cars dry and rodent free. They are a PITA to use but very heavy duty and I would say that it is a better option than just leaving them in storage with a cover. It was hard to pull the plastic up over the car without scratching the paint so I used a car cover as well to help protect it. The car came out 8 months later looking as it did when I put it into the cocoon.
As far as water when you place the car into the bubble and inflate it the sides pull the zippered area up about 6 inches or so. If you have more than 6 inches of standing water it might get in but I can't be sure. Otherwise you should be fine.
