Brief summer hibernation interruption
My car spends the summer months locked away in a warehouse with a car cover.
I interrupted it's hibernation to get an inspection sticker.
I take out the fuel pump relay, turn the motor over till I get oil pressure, put the relay back in and it fires right up.
No smoke
No oil leaks
A/C rocks
Here is a picture of me 1st in line at the closest inspection station
Passed inspection
drove for about 30 min
and now the car is locked away sleeping till Fall......

That's funny that in Austin you have to store your car in the summer.
I kinda store my car in the summer too. I don't have a heated garage so any projects get started in late April. Lately (as in the last 6 years) I'm finishing up for the Woodward Dream Cruise in August. Then the car is put away in October.
