currently I have a '01 grand am gt as my daily driver it's got 190,000 miles needs new tires,brakes,bearings,alignment..etc but it has done the job and for the price I paid and miles I put on it, it's worked for me, however I'm not a new car person..I love the old cars, driving of them, the look of them..just everything. I live in Michigan and am highly considering getting this cheap 1958 Bel Air..it's got a 283 and powerglide transmission...it is lowered some, it's no where near a show car and would make a nice and fun daily for summer but my concern is winter....just wondering if anyone else drives a classic as a daily and what's it like in the winter...it gets in the negatives in Michigan and we get quite a bit of snow..basically I drive 72 miles round trip 3days a week to college other than that it's just a few miles back and forth to work, will I have problems with it starting? Will it handle alright threw the snow?
so what you guys think, any tips or suggestions...it will defiantly need some sort of heat system installed so I dont freeze to death!
