Careful with the tarp. Tarps are a mixed blessing. Yes, they
keep snow and other things off the car, and keep frost off the vinyl top
(frost is very bad for a vinyl top). However, every time the wind
blows that tarp will rustle a bit, rubbing like sandpaper over your nice
shiny paint. I've seen a few cars come out from under a tarp with
ruined paint. If you must use the tarp, make sure it is well secured.
I would also change the oil before you park it to reduce the amount of corrosive acids that collect over time. Don't know if I'd go so far as to remove the battery altogether, but disconnecting it isn't a bad plan.
