Who cant WAIT to re-insure their car for spring?!
#21
Just kept the full coverage on now for the second year in a row. I got to use the car after the snow melted and it rained in December all the way until mid January. Its frozen in now though.

My car is going to be going in storage here in a week and just comprehensive insurance...I am going to be in Australia til the end of JUNE, so I have to wait til damn near July until I drive my baby again
I know winter sucks and storing a car in the winter sucks when you are waiting for spring (stored my 94z during the winter back when I was in Highschool) And even if you don't store it winter still sucks because you want the warm weather to come and cuz you never drive it unless you absolutly have to (did this with my 99 t/a because it was my only car)
But I think it is going to be worse being somewhere that is hot everyday with babes and beaches, and not being able to have your car for 5 months!

Mine has just had fire and theft on it since the 1st of November. I can't wait until the first good rain or two comes and washes the salt off of the roads. I've got the original rims and tires on the car for storage and that way I can do a nice long burnout to stretch my legs after a long winter of driving the beater, which has trouble turning a tire in the snow, lol. After a few burnouts I can throw my regualar rims and tires back on and I'll be happy again.

Started mine for the first time in 4 months today to drive it into my shop so I could start doing some mods Bald drag radials do not work to move a car!!! What a pain in the ***. I had to drive backwards down an alley and around the block to get it in the shop. All the time with the car cover frozen to the car. Looked like those damn enterprise rent a car commercials.

Wow, I can't believe any of you guys take insurance off the car ever. It's way too risky to have a vehicle without some form of coverage. As for not driving the car in the winter, I've been driving both my 70 SS396 and my 2000 SS(daily driver) all winter long. I had the SS396 out one night to meet up with people and it was 20 degrees out. I used to drive my supercharged 93 Z28 Indy Pace Car daily for 5 years and that car could be considered a collectible. Enjoy your F-body all year round, just don't drive it in the snow!

I owned my first Camaro 21 years. Would still own it if road salt hadn't eaten it to the bone. So this one gets stored in the winter untill the salt is off the roads!
I still do enjoy it. I go visit it, sit inside, start it up and jingle my change!

yeah fire and theft for me too, put up in dec, hoping to get it out for april. but right now there so much salt thats its almost not worth washing your car. theres so much salt that its like theres a white powder on everything outside!.....damn winter!
