Up here in the Great White North we get the Z49 option. Non-melting or rusting body panels, steel rims with snow tires and an optional winch or plow for the front. I don't know why more guys don't get the package.

I will be keeping mine going all winter. I agree...putting it away is too hard for me to do.

Nice pic btw

Nice pic.

As for storing MY Corvette for the winter. I have no problem with that AT ALL. It is pretty cool each Spring as I bring the car back out with new mods done to it each winter. It's like getting a new car every Spring.

I do not miss driving the car one bit during the winter......

Don't mind storing mine for the winter either, It always feels new when I take it out, also keeps the mileage low.... 2002 with 23400 miles.

NICE!!!!

I stick by my theory of never owning the same color vette twice (unless you are lucky enough to go through all of the colors).

Silver is now high on my list for the next one...
