I never stored my Chevelles. Although this '64 will probably be different. I do, however, intend to drive it as much as I can throughout the year.

The Corvettes on the other hand, DO get put up for the winter. Inflate the tires to 45-50 psi to keep the flat spots out of them. (DO NOT drive on tires that full!) make sure the antifreeze is good to -34 degrees. Trickle charge the battery for 24 hours and then disconnect it. Throw a cover on to keep the dust down and you're done. If you store it outside, (which I've done) cover the car with old quilts or blankets. then put a car cover it, then cover all that with a waterproof tarp. The layers allow everything to breath and the tarp keeps ALL the moisture out. I did this on my black '82 Corvette. I brushed off the snow and ice in January and peeled everything back. It was just as clean and dry as it was the day I covered it up in November.
