I was wondering what you guys reccomend as far as winterizing my 69 Vette. full tank of gas? oil change? any other little tricks of the trade that you might reccomend for winter. It will garaged for the winter time and not driven at all! what might you reccomend. i have kwiklift ramps to put it on, but further than that i am not quite sure. thanks

Hey! :seeya

Change oil and filter
Full tank of gas with Sta-bil or other gasoline stabilizer
Fresh wash (and waxing good idea, too)
Check air in tires
Disconnect battery
Some people cut up a bar of Irish Spring to put in interior to keep vermin out, but I don't do this one.
Others suggest moisture barriers, etc, but that depends on your storage area/facility.

Good luck and pray for a short winter
