Final Pics for the Year

Unfortunately it's that time of year to put the Vette away. Here's some pics of the Vette's resting place I just finished up this summer (my garage project) and a pic in front of GM World Headquarters.

Great looking place for the vette to spend the winter.

I don't have the hibernation issue here in Georgia, but years ago when I lived in Michigan I remember how hard it was to put my 76 Stingray to bed for the winter. The only thing that made it bearable was the feeling when it came off the blocks in the spring.

I put mine away the last week of October last year, then we had a really nice November and most of December. Since I store mine at home, it is staying "active" until there is salt on the roads here in Wisconsin.

How 'bout them Packers last night!!!!!!!!!!!

Mine doesnt go in till the first snow fall. Might get a little colder out, but a spin around the country block never hurts it
