How do you clean your car during the winter. After lowering mine I can't even take it through a car wash if I wanted to

On warm days (and by warm I mean above 40 degrees lol) I hand wash it. Usually I don't take it out in the snow so it doesn't see much dirt so washing it isn't absolutely necessary. But tomorrow I'm going to the car wash and giving it a quick spray.

this one is a 94 actually. I also have an 89 and a 91. They do rust pretty bad. Apparently the cabs, hoods, and fenders were painted in Japan, and the boxes were painted in the US, or so I'm told. Goes to show the quality paint jobs by the US...

My cousin had an 87. Bought it for 1000. Drove it for years until the frame rusted, and snapped in half. Then sold it for 1000

damn! yeah this ones frame is getting pretty bad. My 89 needs a engine rebuild so I'll be doing that soon and then sell the 94.

Thanks! I'm actually running all seasons. Like I said, it doesn't see snow most of the time so I didn't bother getting winter tires. Right now I've got Bridgestone Potenza RE970AS in the rear and Continental ExtremeContact DWS up front.
