I will be putting my Camaro away this week for the rest of the winter(man this sux). But she will be in my heated garage with Stabyl in the tank, car cover on, and will be modded occasionally. Planning on KooKs headers this winter and a CAI cold air....excited for that! I would not recommend firing the car up a bunch of times though just because the exhaust/oil will accumulate condensation because of the temp. change. This will cause premature rust in the mufflers. Better off just putting battery tender and letting it be till better weather shows up. Think Spring.

unsure of when ill put the camaro to its resting place. heated garage so no stabil for me. for now its in the front garage and id like to see how bad the summer tires really are in the snow and have a little fun but its suppose to rain and be 65 in Indiana monday so ill prob wash in the rain then detail and if i do that then no snow fun.
1. need cover
2 got battery tender already
3. air up tires
4. dont know why u would change oil before letting it sit? then moisture gets into your new fresh oil if that is in fact true? Ill change oil in spring and flush everything out before first start up.

Do you take the battery out of the car or just hook up the battery tender with the battery still hooked up in the car?

Thats funny cause people thought my wife and I were crazy when we told them our car has never had a rain drop hit it yet since she came home!
