    Took the car out today for a local cruise meet. After the cruise was over we decided to go for a drive and get something to eat. As we passed by these guys my wife thought I should pull over and take some pictures.

    Nice photos :thumbs2:

    You're lucky that you got another cruise meet in this late in the year. I think everyone has their cars put to sleep for the season in PA.

    What do you guys mean by putting your cars away for the winter. If you got it, drive it. I've put on 6k miles since the end of January when I bought the car and plan on driving it all winter except for the snow days. I don't winterize my bike either, just dress warmer. :tiphat:

    Depends on where you are I guess. I drive mine all winter too... Snow is uncommon here, and they don't use road salt. It's pretty safe unless the roads are iced, and then I still drive it because I'm an idiot.

    If I lived in Michigan, Canada, or anywhere else where there's snow and ice all winter or they salt everything down I might I might put mine away too. Or if my car was a show-quality creampuff, which it ain't.


    ...BTW, cool pics sgaugeguy. I like your car. :thumbs2:

    it almost looks like it should be in a maverick add from the 70's.

    that pic is pretty awesome. as for the driving it during the winter snow is uncommon here but when there is even a threat of snow they salt EVERYTHING. so needless to say i will not be driving mine if snow is forcasted
