towing question
hello everyone so I have my Camaro ss in my driveway here in Canada for the winter under a cover. I start her every week or so to get things running but in 2 weeks I am going to need to bring her out to get some damage fixed on her and she is stuck in the driveway. (needles to say there is still mountains of snow where I live) so my question is can I use my truck to tow it out because I cant find a tow point on the back. any suggestions if I cant?

If you are trying to pull it out from a snow bank, don't.
Either start shoveling and/or wait for warm weather. |

Others have already covered the towing question. My concern is that you start the car frequently without driving it. It is much better to leave it alone and only start it of you are going to drive it long enough to get all the fluids to normal operating temperature. I recommend that you hook it up to a Battery Tender or equivalent while it's stored.

Start digging man.
Also, don't start the car unless you're actually driving it through town or something. All starting it does is build condensation. Might as well toss the battery on a tender and call it a winter. |

there are what tow truck drivers call T slots on the rear Subframe that they will use to "tow it" out of the location if they can not Wheel Lift it.
I had to have my car moved from my drive way to the dealership i work at to get some stuff done and they Wheel lifted from the rear and Dollied the front wheels. it can be done |
