My plates ran out on Sept. 30th. It's been as high as 26C here the last two weeks.

It was 74 degrees today.

I've got at least another month maybe two.

The heaters on these cars are so good, sometimes I think it's more fun to drive them in the winter.

I put mine away back in August

I was going to drive it this weekend, but my bumper shock won't be in in time to fix it, so my bumper's still hanging half way off

As soon as i can find myself a good winter car, i'm gonna garage my '44. Although i think you should be kicked for tucking it in for the winter this early here in the northwest (southwest if you're living IN B.C.) The weather is cold (944's LOVE cold air) and it only rains occasionally. I think i'll wait till the temp drops to somewhere around 40, then stick the car in the garage.

Ive had mine in storage in the yard for over a month
damn college keeping me away from it - after a degree, my career better pay well enough for me to be able to afford more Porsches

I got me that air drying pellets from a marine store
took battery out, fuel stabilizer + full tank, washed thoroughly right before being put under a car cover then a brand new tarp

do you think its overkill to have it blocked up like it is?
