Where could I get a cover? I know that I don't have to use one for exactly an 82 trans am. I'm also on a budget. Is there any other way besides a cover or a blow dryer, both are almost too much work, plus a blow dryer will dry out your paint job.

Ok, let's nip this in the bud. Can everyone think of things that happen in the winter that Shane will have a problem with?
Ice on the window? Scrape it off.
Door freezing closed? Dry it off before you close the door.
Lock frozen? Lock De-icer.
Lock hard to turn? Graphite.
This is getting humorous. Welcome to cold weather. Without common sense I think this winter will be entertaining for a while.

Shane, for your frozen doors, I would tell you to use silicone spray on the door weather stripping. Don't spray the silicone directly onto the seals if it's an aerosol type of can as some types or propellants can cause the rubber to dry out. Rather, spray the silicone onto a rag and then wipe it onto the seal. Do this every time the car is washed, or once a month at least if you don't wash it that often.

Sorry, but you guys are starting to get too cruel now....
I've not had the best of experiences with Shane either, but I still try to be courteous to everyone - him included.
