ssspringer Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Man..looking at y'alls weather problems makes me even more grateful for being a southern boy!! As a kid we were always hoping for snow but never got much..then in 2000 we got a record 21 inches in one night.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJT13 Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 your driver's door looks like my tailgate right now. I wanted to wash mine today but never made it off the couch. this was the first weekend since August I had nothing to do so I did nothing. I think tomorrow after work she will get a bath and then she will get covered soon after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
70chevy03ss Posted January 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 I just wanted to keep the salt some what off the problem areas. I have an 88 that I tried to keep clean and well It needs some work. Like i said If you guys clean it make sure to open the doors and spray the water in between the fender and the door. The lower part of the door. It has a cover down there move it aside and spray the hell out of it. the was about a 1/4 inch of crap there.

KJT13 Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 after hearing the sleet hitting the windows at 3am and seeing the street outside a few minutes ago, I think the planned bath I had will have to wait... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scooter3 Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 I am so glad I do not have to deal with that. I don't even drive mine in the rain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BILLS04SS Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Damn, I hate seeing any SSS with salt on her. Fortunately, I have other vehicles to drive other than the SS in the snow. Nice job getting her clean though. I would try and wash the under carriage too if you haven't already!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nxtnlne Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Wow .....The only salt we get on our truck here in Cali is from the ocean...I don't envy you guy's......Dag!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
70chevy03ss Posted January 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 That was a freaking waste of time. I woke up to ice every where and oh yeah lots of salt. Yeah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F1SSS Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 (edited) I feel your pain Jesse. Ive only put 3000miles on my SS since November 2007. I remember the winter of 06-07 all too well though. Every time she left my garage she would get a bath. Instead of hand drying, take out the backpack blower and just blow the h20 right off. Saves time. Also, good thing you reminded us of that spot in the doors to get all that crap out, I havent touched that part of my truck and will wash that out tommorow with my hose. Your SS is looking good after her bath. I am getting to the point where I dont even want my truck to see the rain. Must be ocd or something........
