H3 Gets a New Stable Mate
 

The H3 Lost its tent spot to my 65 Vette...Now the New vette..09 takes over the house garage. Looks like the 3 is out for the winter.

How many of you leave your 3 out in the weather 365..??

sweet, i've got a red h3 also. sweet vette. unfortunately, i have no garage to my h3 in for the winter.

Re: H3 Gets a New Stable Mate
 

Yeah for me it's a trip to the Spray wash joint to blast off the winter gack every 7-10 days. I never rub the paint with a cloth in the winter. I just wash the salt off with the high pressure water at a long distance from the paint. And if thier is any dirt that won't come off with the spray... Then it stays till it's warm and I can usea cloth towel to wash it by hand. I have wax on the body for the winter.

both my 3's stay in the elements all year round..............

AHHHHH... lets see, it was 92 degrees today and around 90% humidity !

Re: H3 Gets a New Stable Mate
 

Yeah buy it don't icy and snowy...and you don't have to deal with the winter driving crazzy's

Re: H3 Gets a New Stable Mate
 

Yes, my red H3 has been outside for the last 2 years. Rain, sun, snow etc. I try to wash it weekly or after big snowstorms to keep the salt off.

But thats about to change. Buying a house! And it has a garage.:clapping:

Re: H3 Gets a New Stable Mate
 

NO, We deal with the CRAZZY's all year long...I went to a local "Battle of the Bands" (rock & roll, 50's, 60's & 70's) and the writer Dave Barry was the MC...

"I can't figure out why you people in Miami complain about the driving here", "why as far as I can see everyone obeys the traffic laws"

"The laws of all 58 countries (not countys) that make up the population of South Florida... !"

Viet Nam Vette -
Nice ride! Not a Z06 or Blue Devil (whatever it's called in production)...? My buddy got one of those Z06s a little over a year ago, and man...wow! But then again, I'm used to driving a Subaru wagon, and even my H3 is so much faster and more fun than that Subaru...

Re: H3 Gets a New Stable Mate
 

Nice Vette!

My H3 is outside 365/yr but in So CA I have no snow/salt worries.

Re: H3 Gets a New Stable Mate
 

I was in Miami over Labor Day weekend, man was that some humidity, don't know how you folks last the summer...then again, ppl ask me how I last the winter LOL

Re: H3 Gets a New Stable Mate
 

Z06 ..get's you carbon fiber fendors and reduced weight ....non removeable carbon fiber roof .. plus about 100 more HP.. It's made to race. But it stickers for about $80 G's..

The Blue Devil is Super charged and pumps out 638 HP. Sticker $103,000.00.
Dealer asking price ...????? Way over $103K. And you have to know some one to get one.

I'd rather drive my 3 any day of the week. Long out of state cruz trips are in the 09 Vette. Local Hot Rod Shows in the 65 BB502.

In other words ... I love the Crap out of my H3:clapping:

Re: H3 Gets a New Stable Mate
 

Congrats on the new House..!!! It'll be nice climbing into a warm or cool 3 depending on the season.

Re: H3 Gets a New Stable Mate
 

Hey DD, your 3 will last a long time. I envie you out there....no crap on the road.. Just rocks and sand to climb.:clapping:

Re: H3 Gets a New Stable Mate
 

that's a great lookin' vette bro ! Congrats !

Re: H3 Gets a New Stable Mate
 

VV,
Nice color on the vete. Get one of those tent things for the H3 to keep it nice~

Re: H3 Gets a New Stable Mate
 

Thanks Frenzy,
Can't take the money with you... Spend that chit while you can and enjoy life. That's what the H3 and Off Road-en is all about also. It is time for me to cash out and burn up as much oil as they can pump out of the ground..!!!

Gas..$15.00 a Gallon...No "F" Problem...I'm Drive-en my Chit..!! Besides.. the 09 can get 32 MPH on the highwy in 6th gear!!! and That ain't no poop.!!

My mission now in life is to burn up as much gas as I can.. So. Pump that gack...I'll Burn it. :clapping:

Re: H3 Gets a New Stable Mate
 

Thanks's Guy... If you look in the pic I posted in the first post you'll see that I do have a "Cover-It" Tent thingy.. The 65 Vette I also own is now living in there. Ain't no room on the property for another Tent...unless I block my circular driveway.

Just some good old Carnaba Wax and a good pressure wash on the 3 once a week to keep the salt and road gack off and she'll be fine. I do wish I had a Gee-rage for the 3 but it's looking great after 2 years.

Dam Spuds..!! You were lucky..Looks like some big trees in the area near the H3. Of course..If a tree had fallen on the 3..the 3 wood have split it in half..:jump:

.....if so I would have taken my insurance check down to the dealer and gotten an H3T........:fdance:

But its impossible to replace a nearly 50 year old Whaler.
