If you are going to store it all winter, I would make sure there's glycol in the coolant so the block doesn't crack, disconnect the battery, put it on jackstands so the tires stay round, and loosen up all the rocker arms so none of the springs stay compressed for months on end. Go out to the garage and look at it every couple of days, scare off any rodents wanting to make a nest in the dashboard, and take advantage of the down time to make all the changes for next summer.
