Fill the tank.
Change your oil & oil filter.
Add Stabil Fuel stabilizer.
Put your cover on - make sure the car is clean first.
IF you're not going to start it and move it around at all, as stated above, get the car in the air to avoid flat spotting the tires. I don't do this because I take my car out every 2-3 weeks and put a few dollars of fresh fuel in it. This gives it a run, keeps the tires from flat spotting, the brakes from seizing up, and keeps fresh fuel moving through it.
