Two to three months plus another 2 to 3 months....does that mean that the winter season could last up to 6 months on the Nortern states ?.... Brrrrrr.
In my area, what we call winter ( 45 to 80 F) goes for some 3 months and winterizing is an unknown word. Vairs can be driven all year.

<<Russ, I don't know how long your winter lay-up period is in MD, but may I
suggest that you park it with 1/3 or less tankful. After 2 to 3 months, add
5 gallons of freshly purchased 93 car gas and run the engine long enough for
some of the fresh gas to get to the carbs. Drive it a bit if weather and
road salt conditions permit. After another 2 to 3 months, do that all over
again.>>
