This is a pic of my 1988 Brougham. Its triple white, and in showroom condition. I bought it about a year ago from the original owner. A 93 year old woman. Her family made her sell it when her driving was getting scary, I guess. The car had 69,000 miles on it when I bought it, and I think I put about 1000 miles on it since then. I recently got vanity plates for it that read TX SZD 88 (Texas sized 88) They will get put on when I take the car out of storage in April, as it is snowing here, and Illinois spreads salt everywhere, and I dont want it to get on the car. I miss not seeing it in the driveway everyday... oh well... only a few more months. |

I have my Fleetwood tucked away for the winter, but luckily it is in the heated garage attached to my house.
Take care,

How big of a difference does it make if the garage is heated?? |

Not sure how it feels to the car, but when I am in there working in a nice 60 degree garage while it is 10 degrees outside.. it is wonderful. I was lucky that the guy who owned my house before was a car buff and made the garage fully insulated and climate controlled! |

I am located in Steger, IL. It is between Chicago and Kankakee on the Indiana line. The storage is not heated, and actually I went today to start it and discovered it had developed an oil leak since I put it into storage. Im getting that taken care of on Wednesday. I didnt look to hard to see where it was comming from, as it was 25 degrees outside, and I know I wouldnt be fixing it myself in the cold. Hopefully it wont be too expensive, because Im not working right now. I guess thats part of the fun of owning a 20 year old car. I wouldnt trade it for anything though. |

Thanks for the answer though |
