Man up and put some screws in the tires. You will get plenty of bit then. Tape off the quarter panels so the sparks don't hurt that beautiful paint job.

Get yourself a couple snowmobile skid frames with studded tracks and a pair of skis for the front.
Bein stuck inside all winter when I lived in NY(Tug Hill/Adirondack region... snow avg 200+ inches/yr) led me to snowmobiling. Down side... it cut into my car funds by at least half. (Not countin findin funds for wife and kids to have their own sleds and associated expenses when the family went for a ride and dinner somewhere). A lot of fun though. Have no need for that livin in TN...just need to get back to income level I once had... Slow process startin life over again at 55(I'm 60) especially in this economy. |

That would serve two purposes. I would get a couple passes in AND anti skid the driveway! Good thinking!

I don't know exactly how much Brian, but we have had a thaw that melted quite a bit. My step son goes to school in Houghton MI. (U.P.) and they have already had 228 inches!!

James I don't have a good interior pic. I tried to leave it stock looking. It has Corbeau seats. The cage is similar to yours. You gonna have yours out soon?
