Default putting my baby away 4 the winter

A sad day!!

Taking the insurance off (just keeping fire and theaft) sob, sob...

I put 10K on her since I got her in Feb. That is what I want to limit myself to each year.sob, sob...

man I love this car... had to buy a winter car... its nice 97 MB 230, but... sob, sob....

Over the winter I'm going to change the intake to the MB V8 intake and the Johnson pump will go inehether she needs it or not, She needs a real good cleaning (detailing) - I'll take off the wing a look for rust...

Acording to LET I have the last of 3 cargo covers in existence to install...

these are going to be the longest 6 months....

every day I'll walk by her in the garage and sob, sob...

Winter is the best time to drive these cars. You will be amazed at how much more power is on tap on a 40-50 degree day.

Why so early? I drive mine until the first snow fall.

Yep, that's my plan too. I figure I've got.....ohhhhh.....maybe 10,000 years before I have to store it for the winter.

Now don't be mad just because I chose to live in a place where there are still girls in bikinis on the beach.....in February.

You got that right! - We only have three seasons to worry about

Summer - Fire & Rain

I can ride my motorcycles in two of them - the other only lasts 3-4 weeks and I might need a windbreaker.

We only have two seasons, summer and rain. Welcome to Oregon! But I can drive the Crossfire all year.
