Default WINTER PREP - Pics incl.

Hey Guys,

I was putting one of my Girls to sleep for the upcoming winter months. She looked sooo sleek I was inspired to snap a few pics with the i-Phone
Once I put the cover on her and I hoist her all the way up, she ain't comin' down 'till April.

I like her sexy curves

No, I just over inflate the tires to 35 lbs

Never had a flat spot yet.

Even without tall ceilings you can still have a 4 post. You will be able to get it up high enough to detail, just can't park another car underneath.

i have a double garage with a large support beam going from left to right that lowers the center of my garage to about 7 ft. To gain an extra foot and a half over jack and stands to me isn't worth the $$... Stop trying to get me to like you...

Well I sure don't have a garage like that or a lift, I resort to a hydrolic jack and jack stands. The big difference however, is I get to drive mine year round. That is the nice thing about living in Florida. It was right around 80 degrees today.

Never put mine away, only don't drive as much, depending on road conditions. The weather has been decent here in south central PA. Mine was out and about both Saturday and Sunday.

What do you do about the salt that Penndot thinks that it has an endless supply?

I don't see how you stand it. If I have to travel for 10 days, it drives me crazy to go without driving my vette. You park yours for 3 or 4 months!

I couldn't stand it either, not driving it for a few months. Really nice car.
