Dave -

Try a few moth balls in and around your car during storage.  I've done it
as somebody told me almost all animals are repelled by them.  I've never
had any problem with cars I've treated with mothballs.  Of course the first
few days in the spring the whole thing brings back memories of my mother's
linen closet.

Funny - I had a rebuilt engine sitting on a stand in my attached garage one
winter - covered with large plastic lawn-refuse bags - awaiting
installation in my '73 GT the following spring.  ' Showed it to a house
guest one day in February, who then asked me why I kept rice in the exhaust
ports!
