Easier to make time to work on it when not driving. nothing purchased yet but, wheels, tires, suspension, brake line lock kit, braided stainless hoses. all in the works for the winter.

There's probably a list somewhere online of how to store a car for 5 months.
will be inside, wheels off, on stands, full tank of ethanol free with stabilizer. as stated above I have some stuff to do, so being immobile for a couple months won't be too bad on me.
