What do you think is white good or not?
It was a fun drive thats for sure.
I don't like ANY car in that kinda white!
How about this?
This is a old pic of my Cougar playing in the snow.
OK that's pretty cool...;)
That's Bad-Ass!!!
So does MINE look good in white? :D
The first pic was taken after "White Juan", a record breaking storm in which we received 38" of snow in 24 hours, driven by 75 MPH sustained winds - the weather office said that but for lack of tropical characteristics it would've been a hurricane. I was housebound for three days - even the Cherokee was no match for snow that came up to the hood. The engine pic was taken after I dug the car out and started it and noticed that it seemed to be running strangely quiet.
The third was taken after a week of heavy snow last February - we ended up with 38" this time too, but it came from three storms in 5 days.
I like my shade of white better....
Oh Man ! Thats awesome !
I Have a new wallpapper now !
I did the same in the sand when i was younger (too bad that i never seen that because i was driving...)
Hey, Mr Carm, really, took me 30 seconds to find your car at the second pic.....
Um Thunder Chicken put a cover on that pretty Bird:D . We just got 10 inches of snow in Chicago yesterday. I had to dig out my Buick and unfreeze the doors... GM door seals. My Bird is sitting in the garage till April. It dosen't get to play in the white stuff. Seems to make these cars get "cancer". Oh and if anyone heard about the plane skidding off the run way at Midway airport in Chicago and into an intersection last night that happened about 2.5 miles from my house. I went through that intersection about 2 hours before that happened.
Thats alot of snow.
my t-bird is glad it won't have to see that stuff again ;)
But there IS a cover on it - a nice white cover, as shown in the pic below, taken two minutes ago (there's about 6" down now, and we're expecting 10"). In fact, as I type this, there was just a flash of lighting. Gotta love Thundersnow!
It's not driven in the winter, but I don't have a cover or garage :( - It'll hopefully be getting a paint job this winter, and hopefully next year I'll have a garage...
OMG it's a snow rooster tail! That is freaking sweet. Makes me wish we got snow here, or hell, even rain for that matter. Haha.
Well when we get bored we go out and play in snow.
I tend to do well in the snow due to fact i have a spool in my car.
Never get stuck.
Some killer pics there. That must have been a nasty snow storm to pack snow in under your hood like that. I was bored at work tonight and got on it in our skating rink of a parking lot...as evidenced by the included pics.
The tires just got down to pavement, was running 6,000rpm in 2nd gear...my camera girl got scared cuz my car started sliding towards her as she was getting ready to take the pic...lol.

After melting the snow/ice mix with a nice burnout, this is what happens when it refreezes...you can see some rubber laying on top of the ice from where I got down to pavement.
(http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c188/Sick88Tbird/Icetracks.jpg)See the shine of the ice tracks...more on right side then left due to lighting...
The camera phone wasn't all that bad. Yeah, that's what happens when you're bored at work.
Winter art work at its best
It looks like it is shaking the snow off the way a dog shakes water off. :evilgrin: I like it.
Well we will get a few good pics or a few vids this winter of dorking around with are cars in the snow.
yesterdays storm. opefully one of the last times it ever sees snow. its deffinetly not going too see another winter road...it ended up being about 12" of snow.
Hey Thunder Chicken..... I don't think you had to go THAT extreme with the icing the intake thing huh?
Does my Cougar look good in white. ( Yeah I know this car looks bad, no two ways about it)
It was about 70 When I took this pic a day or so ago.
I parked my car against a hill and waited for the snow to fly. It's going to sit there until it melts too.
I never had snow get into the engine bay like that though. My car has been buried in snow to the point where I couldn't see any of it but it never got under the hood. I'll see if I can find any pics of it.
Well I couldn't find any of it completely buried but here's one that kept me shoveling for quite some time. This was a couple years ago.

Nice videos!
Last year.....shortly after a shoveling mind you.....
all you guys should move to the south... no snow......the coldest it gets is about 38 degrees....nice and cool.......my t-bird loves this weather......lol lol :tg: :tg: :tg:
I had to boost my T bird this morning it was -Holeshiznit out and its going to be colder tomorrow.
What's colder than -Holeshiznit?:giggle:
Well whats colder then -Holeshiznit.
Lets try -HolyMotherOfGod and with a new battery all i got was 2 trys to start and the car just said NO!
Your 351 is too strong and its too cold for the battery to turn it over;) It's warm here today. It's going to be 28 but tommorow they're predicting 3-5 inches of snow. Great more snow on top of the 10-11 inches we already have:mad: .
Well dont help that it only had 600Kms on it so its still breaking in.
I had to change reg and alt today as well.
But i dont have a choke on the carb and it was set up to lean so getting it to start and run was a pain. I have it tuned up and its starting and running alot better.
Oh I didn't know it was that new. Why didn't you put a carb with a choke on it in the first place?
I have realy nice carb on it already and i dont own a carb with with a choke horn LOL I drove all last winter with out a choke too. Just need to have the carb set up good and its fine.
my turn!!
Well after playing with it for a wile i now have it running fine.
I did need to run a jumper wire off the voltage regulator and now its fulling charging the battery
MY Turn
the first one is a half an hour in
the second is an hour in
and the third is when it finally stopped
