My advice to you from PERSONAL experience. Is to spray the bottom with WD-40. The person I bought this car from lived in New York and stored it every winter. She just parked it in a garage and let it sit. It has a little bit of rust on the bottom of it becasue she didn't spray it. So if I were you, I would spray it good.

Bombadier makes a spray that people with Snowmobiles use. It works great, even better than WD-40. Thats been my experience, its not common, we get ours at a local snowmobile, jetski, lawnmower place here in Flint.
