I do not know what part of the world you are in. Here in pittsburgh we get times during the cold snowy months that the snow and salt are cleaned off the roads. That is when you jump on the chance to take it out. I know its not much to go on but its better then letting it sit all winter.

In the 1930s, a man complained to Ettore Bugatti that his Bugatti was hard to start on cold winter mornings. Mr Bugatti looked at him disdainfully and replied "If you can afford a Bugatti, you can afford a heated garage."

I don't understand why you guys don't spend 100 or 200 and get a nice heater for the garage or buy a 50 dollar space heater and wait an hour then go do work. No weather is going to keep me from turning a wrench. I lived in Chicago until I was 20 and I was dammed if a few feet of snow was going to stop me.

Currently in the process of replacing the timing set on the vette along with some other goodies. After that, I'm parting out a crashed 98 civic ex I got for free from a coworker. Then comes an engine swap for my s70 t5. Volvo engine delivery this saturday woohoo!
I have to say, something about the smell of that heater gets me in the mood for working on cars lol.
