I think I will try to get the car out on Wed or Thurs. I need to get a new battery first. The one that was in the car lasted 7+ years not sure when it was put in the car. Time to start driving again!!!

I’m curious on what to expect when I do finally get to fire up the Vette after the long storage season. It has been sitting with a battery tender on it since late October. Will it fire right up, or will it take a few attempts at starting. This is my first season of storing a vehicle other then my motorcycle, which takes a bit of convincing to start in the spring.

I got mine out earlier this month. Fired right up.
On a tender since nov. Stabilized the gas.... I've used 1/4 can of Seafoam in the cars, and always 2 cap fulls in my bikes, for storage, since......forever.
Never had any issues with my bikes over the yrs.

If it's anything like mine, it will fire up just as quick as if it was running the day before....
Took mine out for a half hour today, nice and sunny but cool.
It was an absolute please to drive the car again...

Soon, maybe mid April. 
Three feet of snow here, -11 to -19 forecated all next week.... Sad to say that Covid19 will be gone before our snow is...
You took the words right out of my mouth!!!Soon, maybe mid April.
Winter is back in Edmonton also for the next week and more snow on the way. My biggest three wishes is that COVID 19 is eradicated shortly, minimal deaths, and that spring gets here soon.

So many new dynamics developing (daily) for this decision.
Anxiety over so many things including the burning of the
Winter Fuel from the tanks of the C7s but putting the thought
away for revisiting a month from now. It doesn't feel like
I can consider rolling them out any time sooner.
Hoping the one-day blessing of an anticipated +11C will
happen later today ... so I can just fire them up and Dream
Got Carbon Fiber Ad-ons for my LBR but no heat in the Garage
so if things stay parked, I can eventually keep busy in that regard.

So I am kinds stuck for a week past nice driving temps. The half mile of gravel will need to dry out and I didn’t get the locking hub option.
Streets are swept, temps are going on the plus side.....mid April looks promising.

It's 20C in Port Dover right now.
I might check to see if the Arbor is open.
