What's the best thing to do about moisture? My garage has a concrete floor and it seems the moisture comes in somehow because if I leave anything paper in the garage it will get wrinkled and inks will bleed so I know the humidity in there is high. The garage is not heated but it has electricity.

I notice my brakes get rusty just sitting there as well.

What can I do the prevent the moisture?

One pesky problem people forget, mice. Set the HVAC on recirc before shut down, and use a line of moth flakes around the car to discourage the critters. Renew the flakes around late January.
