-There are some basic things that should be done to store a car for a length of time. Some of these are listed below
-, Change the oil before storage
-, Keep tires off the ground if possible
-, Check anti-freeze for proper freeze protection.
-, Add fuel stabilizer
-, I like to put card board or newspaper under the car to highlight any leaks that may develop while in storage.
-, Clean and treat interior to prevent cracking.
-, Inspect entire vehicle for issues that may be able to be corrected during winter months.
-, If you are going to run your vehicle during the storage time be sure to bring it up to full operating temp and keep it there for a while  to eliminate internal condensation in the engine and oil.
