Well since most cities ran out of salt and have been throwing down sand I think my car will be out a little sooner this year. Hopefully it doesnt snow and the rest of this crap melts cause April 1st the car comes out. When is everyone else plan on pulling their cars out of the garage?

April 11th to load it on the trailer for RA.

If the weather gets better at the end of this month, then I will drive it during the week to work any bugs out before then.

Mid April... But depending on the weather, salt on the roads, etc... etc it might get trailered home, then put in my dad's garage til the weather clears up enough...

We try to have everyone that has vehicles stored to come in the weekend of april 1st. That way the people that want out can get out. People that want to stay cause of the weather get to stay. Thats usually a good weekend, 200 classic and muscle cars starting up in a building....

When will they have the roads fixed? I'm terrified of bending a rim right now.

My car is always out

The bike wont' be out until they clear the sand from my subdivision and do a little street sweeping in other areas.. Its like a sandbox here and way too dangerous.


PS: The salt shortage has been over for a couple of weeks now

To say the least... I've seen pot holes that you could lose small children in... :rolf

Some of them are just crazy. It's weird watching a line of traffic in front of me trying to dodge them. Then you get the person who wasn't paying attention.

Yea ive seen those too. I wonder why my car broke a lower control arm. at first i thought it broke cause the winter car is made by ford. after further review i still stand at my conclusion. :rolf

i should have been more clear. my car is coming out of storage april 1st and going on jackstands in my garage the same day so i can work on getting it done before the middle of april.

My car will be out this week. Rebuild is done, got to get 1000+ miles before it see's boost.

The Iroc, Camaro, and Ninja will be coming out as soon as all the salt is washed away...the Cutlass is still up in the air for a date

I saw them using salt the last time it snowed, Friday or Monday or whenever it was. There's still tons of it on the roads.

The pot holes are just stupid, I refuse to take the Mustang to work until some of the roads get fixed up. And all the road expansions have grown too, so little bump-de-bumps have turned into serious spine-breakers.

Mine won't come out till the snow melts and the salt is washed away. And even then I probably won't drive it until the potholes are fixed.

3 weeks after the last salt.

2 weeks if it rains a lot.

I had the Camaro on Sunday for a little while. That one has seen winter before, so I don't really feel bad about driving with a little salt on the road, but the Hurst definately will not be seeing the road until ALL of the salt is off the roads, she's never seen salt!

End of March if all the salt is gone.

If not, I will pay for another month and take it out in April when said conditions are met.

Took mine to the parts store to get brakes, oil change items, and tune-up items.


Felt good to drive it even for a short distance

03-05-2008, 06:54 PM
At this rate, May. Roads will be salty longer this year as the crap takes longer to melt, plus I have no desire to drive my cars when its in the 30's or 40's I guess I'm getting old. That and the potholes that making driving less enjoyable & riskier to damage crap I care more about than on my daily beater.

03-05-2008, 07:39 PM
Mine will come out when there is no longer the threat of snow and the salt/sand is off the roads. I should have the blower/twin turbo/400hp jets/flux capacitor combo done by then. then I will slap a FOR SALE sign on it and see what I can get. ---Unless I decide to keep it......

I too was hoping to have the car out for opening weekend, but the snow needs to melt away from it and I need to fix the brakes from the last time I was at the track.
