There's really nothing new to report. I tucked the C10 into its winter cocoon a couple of weeks ago and I miss it already. The Expanded-Use Antique license plates I have on the truck go dormant for the winter. The C10 can come back out and play in March.

Really, it's for the best. I have no intention of driving the C10 in the winter months anyway. They salt the living wee out of the roads here in central Illinois and I don't want to encourage the rust any more than necessary.

If we have any unseasonably warm days this winter, we'll spend our garage time chipping away at the bodywork on my son's '83 El Camino. Plenty of work to be done there.

So, until Spring, the C10 will wait patiently under its cover, storing up its potential energy to be converted into kinetic energy when the weather turns warm again.

Winter sinks!
