What's more fun than a summer full of muscle cars? A winter full of muscle car driving, of course! Now, if you live in San Diego or anywhere south of the NC/SC state line, there's a good chance you can drive your vintage muscle cars all year-round. And while that's awesome, it's also the easy way out (says the crew at Hemmings HQ in the great northern Green Mountain state of Vermont). And it's this time of year that we're reminded that not all of us live in perpetual summerville.
Can you pilot your classic rear-wheel-drive muscle car through a fresh layer of snow? How brushed-up on your ice driving skills are you? What about that awesome Mid-Atlantic sleet driving? And then, there's the epic mixture of freezing rain that turns to a sheet of ice over softer snow that's so much fun to break through under the weight of four hardened big-n-little radials. Snow tires? That's a hard "nope." And a whole lot of fun. Truly, it is.
So, enjoy this bit of vintage celluloid and then grab the keys and the garage door opener, a pair of warm gloves, throw a shovel and a set of flares in the trunk, then get out there and find out what you – and your muscle car – are made of.
