Only two of the five cars that you see run. Inside the garage is a 1040s Ford Hot Rod. 20 years ago it was in show condition. But the girl who owns the house now has let the Forsd sit and rust like the other cars. What a shame.

After about an hour of shoveling, I was able to clear enough snow so that I can get the car out. It should be OK for work in the morning.

Must be nice to see the seasons change...anyways.
The only damage would be to the paint. Snow has friction and when it rolls off or scraped off, it causes swirls. Other damage would be from salt on the ground to the underpanel of the car. While most cities has gotten away from using salt, some still do.

I live and drive the Z in Denver, CO. CA is my temp home. I've written suggestions and short articles on how to drive in snow. I agree with the second post, get good tires and learn how to drive in snow.

I still don't understand the purpose of this thread.
