Looks like we're going to get a dusting this weekend down in the valley.
Mountains are looking to get 12+ inches between Sunday and Monday. Going to a hotel in the mountains to do some work on Monday in a RWD van with all season tires. Should be exciting.

Just had a bunch of freezing rain and now there's a blizzard outside. Dumb fuck friend apparently broke down and just called asking for help because her brakes locked up. I told the dumb bitch over a month ago her brakes were fucked and she just laughed and said "well they still work". She can get fucked, not going out at midnight into a blizzard because she's too stupid to get her shit fixed

Get it professionally proofed
Do it yourself; clean underside completely, grind down and touch up the eventual small spots of rust there are, then cover it completely in whatever proofing you wanna use; old engine oil, tectyl, owatrol, bedliner
Undersides with more rust on it might need a proper sandblasting & a round of Hammerite before proofing

I'd understand your pain if it was one of the actually rare models, but a regular Carrera isn't that special. A rustproofed manuél C4S seems like something that'd be incredibly amusing in the winter and I'd totally do that if I had the money.
As for rare winter cars, there's a guy around these parts who regularly takes his Aventador out for a spin even during the winter. He just slaps some winter tires on and dailies it like any generic shitbox.

Euro cars actually often have decent steel quality (unlike Japanese 90s cars), I guess because there is actually snow in Alps.
Eventually, it will become unviable to own a gasoline car, why not enjoy it properly? Cars are meant to be driven.
Personally, I don't tenderly love German cars so I wouldn't feel too bad about rusting a Porsche, I would never want to rust something like FD or TT Supra though.

We've got snow falling in Niagara, but it's not gonna stick. I'm hoping it doesn't stay for a while. I've only got a motorcycle, and I work out of town for the next three weeks.

Apparently she'd just looked away for a second, right front tire went into the ditch and the rest just followed with. Surface hasn't been too great lately, tons of slush, rain and a little bit of frozen ice beneath it at times
>tfw I just discovered the rear tyres have been M+S since I got the car in March
>tfw never get any snow in southern England
>>16192579
Dont be that guy tho - M+S stamps & Mountain Snowflake can be found on so many tires with extremely varying performance
This is the reason why a lot of tires aren't sold up here during the winter even tho they have all the "needed" markings for a winter tire - they simply don't match up to other tires that may have the same markings, but are constructed for the conditions we have
>>16186753

Every year is different.
Snow doesn't happen much until January anyway.
Every year everyone freaks out about how different this year is from the mystical "10 years ago"

Well they don't seem to have much in the way of sipes and they're Chinese crap anyway. They managed to survive driving around all summer so they're clearly not that soft. Most people here don't even bother with winter tyres though, they just roll all-seasons through the slight dusting of snow we get for a day or two. Cheers for the advice though, I'll treat them like all-seasons just to be on the safe side.

>>16195917
Ironically I bought it form a guy that was gonna demo it, and sure as shit the trans was smoked. TV grommet failure as with nearly every dead AOD.
Since I had to replace the trans I did a full drive train swap. Complete HO swapped lopo, and a totally overkill Wide Ratio AOD with a lentech valve body. I had this drivetrain in my 85 tudor and it kicked ass. Also threw some 3.55's out back and a rebuilt trac-lok.
Complete overkill for a winter beater but at least it's fun.
