Very interesting and well written story! I would friggin die if I hit snow in my car.. OMG I don't even want to think about it. Not because I'm scared of driving in snow because normally I go out of my way TO drive in snow (In my Dodge 4x4) - but because I pretty much just show my car at Corvette shows. It is hard enough to get it ready for a show as it is - I can't even imagine the hours you will have to spend on that one. I got rained on a couple times last year, once coming home from a show and once going to one. That was bad enough. I know they won't melt - but they also won't clean themselves either!
I drive past the Hollywood Casino every day going to work. They got enough of my $ back when I HAD extra $, so since now I don't, I haven't been there in a long time.
There are a bunch of Z's and Marc Haibecks shop in the Chicago area - So you aren't far from help if you need it. Congratulations and enjoy!
