40 plus years I have done this.

About November 1st, our 29 is put away. I check it about every two weeks for mice and put a charge on the battery. In mid April she comes out of her annual winter sleep.

I run the carburetor dry and drain the radiator, than cover the car. Nothing else.

This car lived most of its life in Up-State New York, so it knows what winter is.

Enjoy.
