Snow Vette MKII
Presenting the Snow Vette MKII ( the MKI had an unfortunate run in with a cornbine harvester and has been retired).
Promoting my belief that cars were made to be driven, not trailered or hidden away in a garage..the Vette and I ventured out into the bleak winters weather - snow and all. I opened the slush scoops ( headlights) to help clear the road of all that slippery stuff and owing to our height challenged nature all the other cars were happy to dump snow off their roofs onto our hood,but, the Snow Vette was undaunted and with brave determination we ploughed forth. Snow vette then hit the biggest puddle known to man and lucky for me Snow Vette is a "shark" thus Snow Vette transformed momentarily into "Sub-vette" We launched a few torpedoes at the nice SUV who helped engulf us in liquid but he escaped into a ditch..MMUUHHAAAAA!!...ahem...Snow Vette tries not to make fun of 4-wheel drive SUVs. ...but .....it is fun. Snow Vette arrived at our place of work and parked triumphantly in what we assume is a parking space since the lines are all covered.

:lol:
I have a feeling there will be one less C3 (assuming C3 since you are posting here) after a few years of the salt eating away at Snow Vettes MKII's underbelly making my C3 more valuable. :party:

Re: Snow Vette MKII (Tominator)
My first vette was a 4-season car, it only wound up in one snow bank, and just a little. The thing that bothered me most was the leftover sand in the spring where I didn't expect it. Joe
