Funnest snow story, I have on a B.  Mine was stuck in a parking spot in a
foot of snow.  I started it up, but the back right tire would spin, since
the car was somewhat in a ditch.  I left it running in gear.  Got out, and
pushed.  Since there was a foot of snow on the road, I wasn't too worried
about the car going very far.  With the help of the push, the tire bit and
the car chugged out of the hole.  Once the tire stopped spinning, the engine
lugged and died.  Climbed in, fired her up and drove away.  Since there was
a foot of snow on the road, I wasn't too worried about the car going very
far. 

My first B was a daily driver in Leadville CO.   at 9000 feet.  After a
while you get good at leaning out of the window to smack the ice off the
wiper blades.
