Default Darn snow

I wish I had a plow, I'd be rich by now. It's snowing again here in CT. I guess I may as well take the insurance off the car till April or May and start tearing it apart to do the hotcam, brakes, A/C condenser, air filter, air dam, etc. I just have a few more batts of insulation to hang and then heat the garage. This 20 degree weather sucks. Although it does give me a chance to exercise the sleds :yesnod: :yesnod:

Wow, you just put your Vette away? I put mine to sleep early Dec. We had snow in October this year, but I stuck it out till Dec. One last wash to get the salt off. I miss her :(

There is a light dusting where I am...Not too bad. I'd sure like to be in Huntington Beach with the vette right now! Cruising down those beachfront roads! :cool:

Actually, it's been in the garage since before Christmas. I was just hoping the ice would melt off my driveway and I'd be able to take it for a spin but the temps have been in the 20's and more snow on the way, so I guess I can put her to sleep for the rest of the winter. :sad: :sad:

We have almost no snow in Minnesota this winter. We could use some. The temps are still getting below zero.
