3: 4 scrap pieces of carpet
4: Decent (soft) car cover

Place tarp on floor to prevent ground moisture from wicking up from the concrete/dirt floor. Place 2 sheets of plywood on top of the tarp, scrap carpet where the tires will be. Do your maintenance on the car (ask if you are not certain), park it on the prepped storage spot, remove or disconnect the battery (a quality trickle charger will do if you do not want to remove the battery from the car). Throw the cover on (after cleaning the car), and forget about it until spring.

Yes, it is that simple.

For the life of my car I have always run the car for 20 min at operating temp every 3 weeks. Some guys do it more often. I never had any bugs to fix in the spring, so Ill keep doin' that. Im surprised to read that guys are putting them away untouched for so long.
