I would like to ask one more question regarding winter storage.
I am storing it outside. It will have couple of car covers on.
Should I leave one window a little open or is that a bad idea outside?!

Bad idea. No reason to leave it down. It would serve no purpose other than to allow bugs inside. Just uncover it as soon as it starts to warm up if your worried about a mildew smell. As long as it’s dry inside you should have no issues.

Put a couple of dryer sheets inside the car and it will smell spring time fresh when you get in to it in March.

Thank you
I line in Korea and don’t know if I can get them.
Would a few bowls of salt do the trick?

He means like the scented sheets of fabric you put in the dryer with your clothes.

My brother found out how bad an idea it
is to leave a car open while sitting.
Mice found a package of gum in his back
seat of his Iroc-Z with the t-tops out.
Luckily that is all they seem to have eaten

Oh no! I won’t be leaving the windows open!

Good luck with your winter storage over there in Seoul.

I am lucky to have a roof over my car for this winter.
My parents once lived in what is now the garage here.
