RE: Small animals My Delorean had been stored in a barn with a concrete floor under a cover for over thirteen years when I bought it. After taking possession of the car I found a good bit of insulation had been tucked into the forward compartment where the jack and tools are kept ...some small animal had created quite a condo for himself in there. It also looked like something had tried to gnaw through the shift boot....but evidently it did not like the taste because it there was only a small whole. The interior was perfect otherwise and there was no other evidence of small creature's presence during the long storage period. Michael W.

I had mine stored for a long period (7 months) in a garage that was dry and heated and, I thought, tight.
