For what it's worth, I usually put my Midget away in late November early December. This is in Canada, so that's about the time when snow starts to stay. I don't mind snow, just salt. And once the sno

Well, it doesn't need to turn into a contest of "my winter is worse than your winter". However, whenever somebody asks how to put their car away for the winter, they inevitably get a semi-indignant r

You're probably correct. I DID hear someone say they did it, though. I guess even for a long spell, the seals would give too, which would also be a PITA to fix, negating any possible advantages of av
