Fresh oil change, new filter.
Full tank of gas with stabilizer. Battery out, on a tender/minder device. Tires on "cradles." Car is in a capsule in a 55 degree insulated, heated garage. Monthly pest control. Think it'll make it? (IMG:http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2392/1864290191_d2acafde13_m.jpg) (IMG:http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2247/1864299829_a0d00e12d9_m.jpg) (IMG:http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2240/1864310219_6bc012dcf3_m.jpg) A fan and filter keep the capsule blown up at all times. (IMG:http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2312/1865146300_3924bf4e49_m.jpg) Roll the capsule out (IMG:http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2333/1865156580_2a4b78e5da_m.jpg) Attach the fan and plug it in (IMG:http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2101/1865180766_2e5f4ca91c_m.jpg) (IMG:http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2135/1865193182_0aa3e3e510_m.jpg) (IMG:http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2056/1865205646_8fa24431df_m.jpg) (IMG:http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2150/1864390903_a17bc375f8_m.jpg) Looks like a Jiffy Pop popcorn blowing up. (IMG:http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2350/1865246520_71d8630252_m.jpg) What can I say? It's easy taking tons of digital photos! (IMG:http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2002/1865283022_d8191a733e_m.jpg) All blown up. Time to undo the red zipper tags in the front on the bottom and add a 914. (IMG:http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2346/1865291508_e29ba63cf8_m.jpg) But first a set of 4 tire cradles. Hopefully no flat spots during the next 5 months. (IMG:http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2359/1865313244_e294fdcd7e_m.jpg) Apparently no other cover necessary. (IMG:http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2403/1865325510_e16456dcee_m.jpg) Gotta watch the antenna doesn't poke through. (IMG:http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2399/1865336826_b07814ea23.jpg) Fully inflated. Hopefully it'll start in the spring! Paul |

If you put some styrofoam packing "popcorn" in there with a decorative plastic "Santa" or "Frosty" you could have your own Giant snow-globe!
