Streets around NYC area are excessively salted, the Z's wont be driven till the heavy spring rains wash it all away.


IF YOU HAVE NEVER STARTED A COLD!!!! LT-5 THEN;
Follow this procedure carefully to start an LT-5 that has been sitting in zero degree weather.
Do EXACTLY as instructed!!!


1- open door
2- sit in driver's seat
3- depress clutch pedal
4- insert key into ignition
5- turn key
6- release key when engine fires up almost immediately.
7- smile broadly


Happy New Year!!!
Marty
