Default Any outdoor Winter storage tips?!?!

Just little things that I should do to my car when It is sitting for the winter.
I have the noah outdor car cover and lock. How often should I start it and how long to idle it for? Do I need to change oil before? I just need to know all the things to keep my "Hot rod" safe for the winter and be able to drive it next spring.

Any tips will be helpfull.

Thanks

If I were you, I would rent one of those storage units they have around here. Park it in there and every few weeks go start her up. The cost you are not spending on gas and oil changes should pay for it. Outside...not me :nono:

Is that a rhetorical question?

I know how much they are...about $120-$150 for a Corvette size unit. I lucked out and put it in my girlfriend's garage.

I don't know about up there, but I rented one down here for a couple months while I was moving - $95 per month.
