Default Sleepy time for my vert - pics inside

Here are the last pictures of my baby before she goes to chevy hibernation land and some pictures of her final resting spot. I waxed the car with NXT and also broke down and cleaned the interior. Sweet dreams ... winter sucks!!!!

I dont like to refer to it as "hibernation"

I just call it "mod time"

I think I work on my Vette 10 times as much over the winter months as I do in the summer....it helps deal with some of the withdrawl.

No such rest for mine. I hope to enjoy it during the Winter when the roads are not covered in snow and salt. For all those putting their rides to rest for the next few months, good night.

i see no snow on the ground .. you could have gotten at least another few weeks out of 'er or you could just move to florida and enjoy year round sunshine. it's getting down into the 60s again.
Time for peak performance months. YEPI!

Still warm enough for the top down, but cool enought to give my girl a few more phonies.

Hey, bro...I feel your pain. My Vette went went into storage yesterday also. But, think how happy your snowblower is now that it has been moved into the ready for its attack on the first snowfall. Can the weather possibly suck more in Canada than in northern Minnesota? Now there is something to to ponder over watching paint dry. Just think how excited we will be in the spring on the day we uncover our cars...whilst to all the fellows in the sunshine states it will just be another day. Maybe we can order each other Covette catalogs or something. Dan
