And do you guys put extra air in the tires when putting her to bed for the winter? Stable of some kind in the gas tank? Fill her up at the very least?

Just looking for a cover that will fit and not fall apart in 3 years indoors. Doesn't need a JAG or XKR logo

Thanks,

When storing for the winter, lay down a plastic paint tarp (3 mil will do). This will serve as a moisture barrier that leaches up from the concrete. Throw dryer sheets on the floor and in the engine bay to keep the mice away. Rags or steel wool in the exhaust tips for the same reason. I put 40 PSI in my tires. Any old full stabilizer on sale and whatever they recommend per tank.

Just drive it on nice days. Blower cars love cold weather.
