Winter Downtime
Hey from a former Dallasite. (Frisco actually)
Ya, that winter downtime is tough, especially since we just got over a few days of 6-8 degree nightime temps. I have the 'Rat Rod' already stored in a garage near me. So I went by there yesterday and took off her cover (is that kind of talk allowed on here?) put a little more StaBil Storage in her tank, and fired her up for about 10 minutes as I rocked her back and forth. Then a good wipe down with a liquid wax soaked rag to make us both feel better. It really hurt to put her cover back on, but I do wave as I drive by in my 4WD and promise her it won't be long before we can boogie in the tree covered mountains once again.
Speaking of covers, I bought a UTV side by side cover for 14 bucks. It fits really great over the windshield and bars and is wide enough to drop down over the rear wheels.
Til the sun comes back out again......
