Default The Mighty '90 Lives

Finally decided to take her out today after a 6 month hiatus. Roared to life on about the the 3rd crank, everything working, so I took her on a lunch time cruise. All is well in the world again

Glad to know you are having Fun Jim.

While the Vette is hibernating, Do you crank it or Do you winterize it 100%?

Don't much Pete, change the oil, put about 5lbs more air in the tires, throw some Stabil in her, put the charger on, throw some bounce sheets in and cover it. Has worked so far

Technically, it can snow in any month and it has, over history. Normally we do not get snow until late November
