Early this year. Put her to bed Septemeber 30th. Usually wait until Oct. 31st but had not drove her since labour day so why pay the Ins.
Geez it is a long wait until the end of April

Give her one last thorough cleaning, some even detail their car
Disconnect the battery and take it indoors do not put it directly on cement
Lower your windows just enough to release the pressure on the rubber seals
Leave your doors, trunk lid and hood just slightly poped so as not to put pressure on seals
Do not lock your roof closed if a convert
Steel wool up the tailpipes to prevent mice from finding a new home
I put mouth ***** inside, under the hood and in the trunk as well as around the car other use bounce sheets (smell better)
I also put baking soda inside and under the hood to prevent condensation
Fill your gas tank as well as including a gasoline preservative
I park on peices of wood as opposed to a cement floor
Of course a nice warm cover to keep most of the dust off
In spring change your oil to remove any winter condensation

I am sure there will be others who do more but this is mainly what I cover.
