Subject:85 Westy in the snow?

Hello all,

I posted this early last week sometime before the list blackout and
didn't get any replies.  So I'm posting again.  Sorry if you've already
read this once . . .

I'm selling one of my cars to pay for my recently acquired 85 Westy.  I
live in Southwestern Virginia, and we get some decent snows in the
Winter.

I want to have at least one car that performs well on snowy roads.
 If the Westy does well, I'll sell my front wheel drive Olds Cutlass, if
not, I'll sell my 86 Toyota Van (does not do great in the snow).

I can't wait until Winter hits to determine which car to sell, so if any
of you can let me know how they perform in the Winter (with or without
chains, snow tires, radials, etc.) I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks.

 -Patrick
