Winterizing - To take it out of storage?

So, 6 months ago I moved from Chicago to LA for a new job opportunity and knew that it would be a year and a half or so before I was able to relocate my FD to my new location. I followed the (How To Store Your RX-7) to a T before I left and the car is still sitting in my garage to this day.

It's going to be getting cold in Chicago, and time is running out for any friends to help me temporarily get the car running again and then to re-winterize it.

So my question is, should I get help to pull it out of storage or should I just leave it as is? Also I'll be home for Christmas, so I can do it myself at that time if need be.

I would just leave it until you have the opportunity to drive it properly again. No point wasting money or effort until then.

Money and effort aren't much worry. I still have all the supplies to do it over again. But you're right being home for 5-7 days over the holidays probably isn't enough time.

Other thoughts are welcome!
