Gloom, Despair...
Winter is almost upon us and its time to put the white princess to sleep. :(
I will miss looking at her curves everyday and anxiously await spring time. If there is anything good about putting the vette in storage is that I now have a warm garage to park my Jeep for the winter. I despise getting into a cold, snow covered vehicle in the morning. ..

Know what you mean, usually late December through February mine stays in the garage,with a cover over it. I will start it a few times a month just to keep the fluids moving around.

Re: Gloom, Despair... (daily_driver)
we don't have much of a winter here in NC either. But we get our share of storms from the tropics(be it a tropical storm, or hurricain). Durring which time I use my body to sheild debris from the car :jester .
I guess it all evens out in the end. We have a blistering hot summer too, so there are a couple days that are to hot to drive the vette until it gets dark.

I can't wait until winter gets here !!. Driving with the tops down, 70-80 degrees, nice warm sun on the face and cool wind in the cockpit and down the carb.
Make the car and owner both feel real good !!
Enjoy that white stuff -- what do you call it, uh -- sleet, no -- ice, not quite -- hail, no thats in spring -- oh yeah -- snow !! Enjoy the snow.
:D :D :D :D :D
P.S. you can always stare at the temps in my weather ticker below if you get too much cabin fever this winter !!!!

Re: Gloom, Despair... (Red Hot Vettes)
and it was gone within 2 hours. By the way, it snowed in Scottsdale, but in the poorer areas we only got rain. Our city couldn't afford the entire price for snow like "Snotts dale"
