Sure it'd be no problem on flat ground, but think a little. Hills? Stop lights on steep inclines? 2 feet of snow in the roads when they haven't been plowed yet? It's no drive in the park where I live. I know it's fun having RWD in the snow, but it wouldn't get me anywhere here.

You must get sick of the cold weather.

i would never take my 240 in the snow. im so paranoid like that. the body right now as it sits had absolutely no rust. see here in illinois they use salt on the road, so u see why i dont drive mine in the winter.
i bought a 1987 chevy celebrity(****TY) it was like $800.

yeah they use salt on the roads here too...sometimes just dirt...whatever they feel like....i didnt mean we have all winter but our winters are constant snow. and our summers are hot as ****. like unbearable humidity. its illegal to use chains or studded tires here. my car is rusty to begin with..thats how i bought it...and im prolly just gonna keep it as a winter beater and buy another 240....my car is for sale if anyone wants it....s14 240....lowered exhaust intake plugs and wires...its an auto tho...thats why i wanna sell it. also because i want a 97 or 98...instead of doing a front end conversion i just wanna start with the right lights to begin with.


peace *****.
