Digging out your car pics!
Although the North Eastern states got hit harder by the storm, just outside of Toronto, we still had some digging out to do.
Snapped this pic of my new track car: 2000 Echo with 290k on it, already has some parts, but needs a clutch. It'll be prepped and I'll be racing it in CASC-OR's Ontario Time Attack this year in the T1 class. Let's see yer pics!

We got over 3 feet of snow, and by the time I went out to plow this morning the road plows had created a wall over 5 feet high at the end of our driveway.
Crashy did a great job digging us out:

Funny, the different initial impression (in this case re a phrase) people will have depending on where they grew up (near San Francisco for me). When I saw the title of this thread, my first thought was 'Great, people finding and digitizing pictures of cars from their collective pasts' This will be interesting to see. . The reality,still very interesting, but not what I thought. I've only spent one whole winter in snow (although lots of time skiing during many winters -- vacations and weekends), and I was already an adult and didn't drive that winter. Completely different thought from the OP, and many others who have experienced 'non-resort' snowstorms as part of life during Winter, likely for many years.
P.S. Perhaps 'Digging your car out pics' would have resulted in my initially (before clicking) being on the same page as the OP...I don't know. I hope the ECHO has only great success re racing! Last edited by nookandcrannycar; 02-09-2013 at 09:44 PM. |

Here are my cars after I used my new invention that makes snow go away like magic!
But it only works in NJ (near Philly)
