Re: [DML] Disspelling the myth of storage




I live in eastern Massachusetts and my D sleeps like a baby in a Carcoon all
winter. It's not a matter of fear. It's a matter of NOT having your car
disolved from the inside out by the salt they put on our roads. The D's soft
underbelly consists of an epoxy coated mild steel frame and suspension. One
little chip in the frame's epoxy coating and your on your way to
Palookaville. Trust me on this. I wouldn't let the Mass. Department of
Public works spew that crap on my car. You may as well spray the underside
of your car with battery acid every day.  (Sodium Chloride (NaCl & H2O =
Electrolyte) I've lived here all my life. Every car I've owned, at some
point,  ended up with rust or rot no matter how I babied it. The Delorean is
no exception. Brother, It's no myth. You just might be well on your way to
providing us all with another "parts" car some day. Get yourself a beater
car and put the D away. Just my two cents.

Rustproof (Not really)
