Poor salted Camaro finally de-salinated - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

We finally got a day of above 40 degree temps after many frigid, snowy days to clean my baby. Ruby was almost white & it broke my heart, but she is beautiful again (for a while).

They do clean up nice. It is such a good feeling when they are clean and smiling at us.

I wish I had my own house so I could clean my baby too, my is covered in salt but because I rent I can't wash her too much in the winter because landlord cuts off water to outside. I crave washing my car soo bad!!

i think your camera date needs to be set correctly. lol... Nice color, reminds me of my 1988 Iroc Z28 which was burgundy.

That looks great.

I've got to do that for mine tomorrow. Did you do anything else to protect it from the elements?

Mines pretty salty right now, in fact it's parked for the nexy few days as I wait out the next storm that is expected on Tuesday or so. I got caught in a snow storm yesterday and she's been parked since I got her tucked away.

Here are a couple of pix of my winter driving in my 2SS! Last winter in my 2LT handled winter just fine and this new SS is handling it fine also. Who said you can't drive these cars in full blown winter? It's a matter of great winter tires and my Pirelli Scorpion Ice&Snow are amazing! (it's the other drivers I worry about!)

Oh and great rust protection...
