I just don't want to put the cover on the vette yet because it suddenly becomes real. I guess I still have hope of sunny days, although that will end quickly if the snow continues and they salt tonight

I had it detailed last week but then it was in the 70's the past two days and drove it. If we get a decent day in the next few weeks I might spray it off.
I have stored cars in the past, and will certainly use a battery tender, but the winters in the Northeast no longer last from Halloween to Easter. As such, I'll have it easily accessible for those 60 degree December and January days. It was 75 degrees yesterday!
Oh, she is still a garage queen. The roads will have to be salt and cider free of course.
Just back from a short business trip to Pensacola . . . and now looking out the window at the snow here in MN . . . where is that head-bang smilie??? Found it!
Damn Jon, I love TR Z51 convertible w/ the black wheels and top, red calipers and accents. That was exactly the color combo I was looking for when searching for a CPO. I settled for black on black on black because I couldn't find an M7 version of your color combo anywhere in the country at the time.
While I've never put a car away for the winter, I did live in Minneapolis for 8 years and wouldn't have driven a C7 in the MN winter. However, I did drive an M3 on snow tires year-round.

Thanks! After years of shifting manuals, my Audi S5 was a fun transition to paddle shifting. So far liking my A8 a lot--sometimes Auto, sometimes Manual.
Regarding MN winters . . .I had snow tires for my 911 C4S but I hated to look under the car and see the suspension parts rusting due to the salt. Same for my Audi S5. Figured enough is enough!

) for the sympathy and the photos. The cover, by the way, was ordered from Cultrag Performance.
