winter storage
#11
I normally put max psi in the tires, full tank of gas w/stabilizer, pull the battery and lay 2 or 3 dryer sheets inside, helps keep out the rodents. Put the cover on and let her sit in the garage for the Connecticut winter.

I park mine on the back of my paved driveway with no cover. I don't change the oil or put in stabilizer. In the 5 months mine was parked last year the gas never went bad I just started the car like every 3 weeks on a warm day and let her idle for 20-30mins. If you don't use a cover wax the car before you put it away and the snow will slide right off.

thanks for the tips. i live in pa. and so far its been alot of rain this winter but we can get some pretty bad snow storms here. i was thinking just add fuel stabilzer park the tires on blocks, use my car cover then put a tarp over that. start it once every 2 weeks for awhile. and that was prolly it?

^^^what they said. i would not wrap the car unless you can be sure that all the moisture will be removed with dessicant bags(and you cant be sure). don't don't don't leave the pony in the grass pasture; a great accelerant for rust.

I just grabbed the biggest garbage bag I could find, and I was planning on throwing it over my T-Tops and all other seals around the car. Unfortuantely I was still up at school when the big snow hit and my buddy jsut didnt have the time to do it. I've been told not to use tarps as they do more bad than good. And as someone suggested above, you may want to get a moisture absorber to keep inside. I just left my car on the stock rims as I plan on buying new Cobra R's in the summer. And thats pretty much it, my buddy did the same with his last year and it worked out fine for him.
