    My winter/daily beaters

    '93 Lumina Euro. Paid $500 for this.


    My truck. '98 Escort Wagon. Not sure what I'd do without this car. It's hauled loads of firewood, a commercial size air compressor, and Reptile and I even hauled a complete 3800 engine about 50 miles to his house in it! LOL! Gave $400 for this and put another $125 in it for a new hood (old one was crushed) and traded out some work to get the hood painted. Sunroof installed by me, completely free.

    Some old pics... It now has a little bigger tires and a undercover bed cover on it. But, we really don't have winter down here. It was nice when I lived in Illinois.

    I considered getting a second vehicle. But I think she might get jealous.

    I have a 99 Grand Am that belongs to my little brother that I drive when the weather gets bad. He goes to school at Boston U and leaves his car here so I don't have to take the GTP out in the snow all that much.

    I used to live in Michigan, and rarely bought a winter beater, I just washed the car every 2 days (helped I had access to an indoor wash bay with an undercarriage wash down)
