Floor is ceramic tile. It has been down for over 10 years and holding up well (yes I do use the garage for projects).
The "bird" is inset ceramic tile and has a 36" wingspan. My avatar is a photo of that medallion.

I look forward to the winter months. I drive my cars more regularly then. The summer heat here in the CA central valley can be brutal. Old cars don't like heat and baking sun.

Wow vega’s must have shipped with no fluids. You would think every fluid would leak at those angles.

Well, just washed her and put her away. She's got a fresh, full tank of ethanol free gas, fresh oil, fuel stabilizer, trickle charger. That's it I guess. Nothing but rain here for the next few months.

It is not bad putting the car away for the winter, it allows me to get things changed or modified for next year. I plan improvements during driving season and then work on them over the winter. I drove my car yesterday, in the 60's, until the cold front came in, to the gas station to fill up with non ethanol gas for the winter. They are saying possible snow this weekend.

Think I set the record this year in Mi. Had the GTO out for a ride this week after I had already taken the battery out. She's back in hibernation now with her other Pontiac relatives.
