[FWDLK] winter storage



Well it's that time of year again when us guys up here in the North have to put our finned beautys into hibernation for a few months. Was reading a tip in an old 1958 Motor Trend mag.  It says "Keep Doors Weathertight" "When in the garage, leave your car's doors on the "half latch" thus letting the rubber weather-stripping retain  the resiliency that is lost when the doors are always closed tight."  Makes sense to me, especially if you recently installed new seals, but I'm wondering if by leaving door ajar for 6 months the weight of the ajar door might be hurting the hinges thus allowing door to drop half an inch or so when you open it.  Any thoughts?
