Fortunately I get to run the cars every 4-6 weeks, always store on Radial tires, not bias ply. Stabil in the fuel and car covers, Garage is kept at 55-60 degrees. Use a moisture trap similar to what I use in my Airstream trailer available from all RV stores. Peppermint oil or Irish spring soap is a good rodent deterrent. We have a moderate climate here in Vancouver, so if the opportunity arises a car will get some exercise.

Used Irish spring soap a few years back and the mice ate almost two full bars.
