Winterizing

[Dom]

I know this is a bit early to start this discussion but I wanted to start planning. This is my first Vette and the first time I ever had to winterize a car for storage.



Other then treating the gas and a trickle charger n the battery, is there anything else I should do?



Thx

Yikes!! That Dreaded Winter Storage

There's lot's of theories including some "old wives" tales on the subject, but this thread pretty much covers the most sensible things around storage of your vette. http://corvetteactioncenter.com/tech/care/storage.html

Now if we could just find a way of winterizing Remo that doesn't involve having to remember to give him his meds. :L

What Winter??

My girlfriend made a good point..

Do I really think that Im gonna put the car away for the entire winter?? I was actually thnking about taking her off the insurance and everything. NO WAY!!

I'm sure there will be plenty of winter days where I can take her out and stretch her legs!

I feel the same way. As long as no salt/sand is on the roads, and snow isn't in the forecast. I will usually take the vette out and drive her a little. Sitting is worse for these cars then driving them.

Now you've done it . . .

Someone get Remo his meds, the winter word is starting to go around!

The winters are mild enough around here that I'm able to run my Vette around quite a bit in those months!
