Baby K has been on the lift covered and sitting on tire cradles since Nov. I'm getting a little itchy to fire her up and listen to her purr, then growl, so I had my wife hide the keys.

I was hoping to take the car out today but unfortunately it snowed overnight. Now I have to wait until maybe next weekend. I refuse to take the car out with any water or salt on the roads. Just sayin.

btw I do drive my car from time to time as long as its over 37 F and the road is clear of snow, which is one of the pluses in living around Boston metro area.
We appreciate the opportunity to make an awesome car even better! Thank You!

No ZL-1 time in Rhode Island either, with our first snow storm came all the sand and salt so the Z sits in the garage nice clean and covered till spring.Even if there is a clear day with all the sand on the roads and these tires it would be like taking a sandblaster to the car! Rather than fight it I say let it snow so I can plow make some $$ and do some mods

Sand and salt and whatever else they use now a days has been on the roads since Nov. I wouldn’t take the car out if I could!!
The crap they use on the road before the storms hit eats metal like I eat ... well lets just say its no good for any vehicle, my truck has started to show the effects of it ...I had to replace the exhaust manifold bolts they were almost gone!
Along with the dip stick tube...rotted
I'll wait till spring to drive her!!Besides I suspended the insurance..
That helps keep her in the yard.. Kind a like an electric fence!
All you guys that can drive all year round I'm envious but I look at it this way ..My tires last longer and mileage is lower... I had to think of something!
