We have to put away the '79 early, like a month ago...it doesn't get driven much

It's my Dad's and so, he really doesn't pay too much attention, putting it away, to him, means parking it in the garage, leaving as much space between it, and the minivan as possible.

If I had my way, the filters would all be changed, the oil, the coolant, the battery disconnected, and rags stuffed up the tailpipes, right before the cover goes on.
