Snow - my garage doesn't get opened unless the humidity is under 50%

This is Di Pardo's garage in west Toronto, no 75 Evo there but my Milano Gold having a Fiat temp sensor installed

I've known Pino for 7 years but haven't had the chance for business. Most Italians live in the west-end, I was in the far east and only moved a bit central recently.

The red Lancia is a customer's car with a license plate expired in Nov 2007. It was imported 15 years ago. It's in very decent shape overall and sounds great!

Few blocks northwest, Auto Forum is having 2 Delta Integrale, 1 Thema 8, and 1 Citroen XM V6 for sale: Used LANCIA Ontario | Auto Trader Used LANCIA
Maybe I should drop by as well. After all, Auto Forum was the 1st owner of my 164S in 1991!

That red Verde in picture has nothing left but a body. Engine, interior, all gone to a GTV.

I don't know if it's an A4 or A6 beside me in the shopping mall. It looks so big compared to the Milano. Modern cars're getting bigger and bigger on the outside, but interior space usually stay the same or even become smaller. If it's an A4, then its cargo volume is the same as my Milano, at 380L.

Look at the white 164L closely: it has front window visors. First time I saw these Alfa factory options! One is cracked so I didn't buy. These visors are actually very handy after I installed them on my Milano. They really keep the cabin dry in moderate rain so I can open the window and get some fresh air

Man, good thing you didn't see Autosprint in Chicago last week. This is picture is after about a half hour of dusting the snow of my soon-to-be-new-to-me-car! The Old Ferrari's and GTV (the white mound in the background) and Fiats were left to wait for the thaw...

Oh great - more snow pictures to keep me up at night! Yes, you're right, it's a good thing I wasn't there in person - that there is criminal in my book!!
Even though I do drive my GT in the rain (not the sedan though), there's something about an Alfa buried under snow that makes my skin crawl...make that any cool old car. I'm particularly concerned about that Fiat 500 in the background...
