Camaro VS Snow..

what do some of you guys do for storage in the winter?? this is the first year im putting the camaro away.. so i was planning on putting it up on jack stands and covering it.. because i dont have a garage readily available.. also wondering what some of you guys drive in the winter... i just got an 88 F150 (even tho i hate fords, but i couldnt go wrong for 300 bucks..)

i used to just wax mine up really good and put a cover over it, but this year its garaged, and i drive a 99 tacoma in the snow.

i drive a buick century in the winter. camaro stays in a heated garage with card board under it to make sure it doesnt leak anything

Well here in southern cali we don't store shit for the winter it's pretty much summer year long, that must suck having to store your maro for the winter

it sucks and my insuarance goes up in the winter one mine, so i take the insuarance off it and park it and save the extra cash for mods and other things (thats the only plus about) i used to drive a little '71 VW beetle in the snow before i got the truck

it does suck almost as much as winter does. but hey at least chicago isnt falling in the ocean anytime soon lol

Well no shit it's fucken frozen, i like chi town but it was fun just to fucken cold.

I had to keep my car outside last year and I did a bunch of stuff to it and moisture still got underneath and rotted out a fuel line.
I covered up the tailpipes and used some steel wool and bounce sheets because they are supposed to keep rodents away.

I put a small tray of baking soda on the floor inside to help with moisture. I put fuel stabilizer and gas line anti freeze in also.

I never put mine on jackstands and I had one semi flat tire in the spring, filled it back up and it hasnt leaked since.

I couldnt get my battery out either so I just unhooked it and it fired right up no problem after all those months.

lol smokey ever place has its advantages and disadvantages

cali has landslides forest fires earthquakes and the governator

chicago has cold ass winters besides that natural diasters are limited. They happen in Illinios but not near me.


I want to drive the camaro in snow but scared ill finally get it fixed again and wreck it

Drove mine last winter, gonna do it again this year...

Im with 97. As long as the snow aint to deep and i want to drive it i will. But most of the winter is spent in the garage and i use my 95 GMC sierra.

This is what I normally drive around in.

But the Z3 is almost as bad in the snow as the Formula so It really depends more on what type of mood i'm in which car I take out in the snow and I'm like the best driver ever (really I deserve a plaque) so snow/ice/freezing rain/oil slicks/huricanes/monsoon/lava. is no match for my superior driving skills.

as long as your not stupid, and parking it on grass, you should be fine.

I would try to lift it up as far as possible so it airs out more quickly, and isnt just rotting out the underside.

formula.. it doesnt matter a whole hell of a lot if you're the best driver in the world when the worst driver in the world pulls out right in front of you when you're doing like 45 in the snow.....

He was joking lol

i know.. but i am a pretty good driver as well and i've had my share of stupid people experiences.. lol, just making a point...

heres a pic of the truck with the camaro for you guys who dont get over to the firebird forum..

not bad, looks like you got a good deal

I think you should see if you can drive over your camaro in the truck like they do in the commercials and who was kidding I am really the best driver in the world and you can throw a whole bunch of bad driver in my way they will kneel down to my massive skills when they see me coming.

yeah john, what im gonna do is make a shell on the outside of the camaro of 1" steel squarestock.. and im gonna mount the truck body to it.. so really im gonna be driving the camaro.. but its gonna be a 88-93 Camaro150.. and the 351 is gonna be in the camaro.. lol

pimp

pimp
If he's the pimp. Does this mean your the whore?






JK, I'm the only real whore around here.:evillol:

no.. i like to whore it up on occasion.. but my usual corner has been so overpopulated by mustang guys that its unbelievable.. they're gettin no business tho.. chicks dig camaros because they know they're faster
