Still too much salt on the pavement.Need a few more days of rain(little so far) to wash it away.Mine has never seen the salt & hopefully never will.The snow won't hurt her but that salt will do the nasty on her.It wont be long now.Maybe April this year instead of the usual May re-birth.Heres hoping.You warm climate guys suck.All we ever hear bla bla bla "how nice it is today,driving with the top down" on and on.Took her out today 60-70 degrees " bla bla bla.Us Midwest quys and gals will be in the saddle soon & the smile will be on our face's once again.

Took mine out today, and lowered the top, 1st time since Nov, drove about 15 miles, came back home, put the top back up, and had the Dreaded 'Rub Marks" again. POS Top Design.

Never put it away.

Not till a good rain comes and washes away any salt and sand from the most recent snowfall around here. Should be out and abouts soon.

It stays in most of the winter....but if its sunny and dry and I feel like a drive, then it doesnt matter if its 90* or 20*.

mikeSS · 03-12-2012, 12:46 AM

i probably drove it 5 times this winter. just to keep everything going, if that makes sense. but i can feel very soon i will switch my camaros spot in the garage with my bimmers. then its officially out of storage.

You might have seen mine ;-) I'm in CNY.. roads are still salty but I couldn't resist. Lots of car washes in my future but I'm a happy Guy.

AHMITO · 03-12-2012, 03:42 AM

Brought mine back to the house Saturday. Going to give her her first Adam's cleaning and then she should be good to go!!

dmwhiteman · 03-12-2012, 06:22 AM

I think Ill have it out of the garage tonight, I cant take it anymore. Need to wash off the dust. Living back a dirt drive I still have a bit of mud and cant make it to the main road yet.
