If you are going to put it in a museum then I know that the following will be done (if they follow OSHA standards). All of the fuel and the battery will be removed and maybe the oil. I don't know what effect removing all of the fuel from the tank and fuel system and having it sit for a year will do to the fuel system (IE: Rot out the rubber in the tank, form rust, etc.), you might want to look into that. I would recomend that you do draw up a contract stating that if anything is damaged or stolen (like someone climbing into the car and swiping the shift knob or something) that the Museum is to take full responsibility for it. Take LOADS of pictures of the car before releasing it but take it in the presence of them. Don't have them display the car with the doors open (put extra strain on the torsion bar and strut) or you could find yourself replacing the struts when you return if they do so. If they want to display it with the doors open then tell them to have someone open the doors of the car when the place opens and to close the doors when the place closes. I can't think of anything else but I'm sure others on the list will come up with other good ideas. IMHO, I would store it properly by filling the gas tank up and adding gas stabilizer, change the motor oil, spray Fogging oil into each of the cylinders (will prevent rust from formng inside the cylinders), storing it in a cliamate controlled place (if you don't have a place to store it in), put the battery on a battery minder (or remove it), put a box or two of baking soda inside the car (keep it moist free and smelling nice) and cover it. If it was going to be more then a year then I would suggest to remove the tires and install some cheap tires on aftermarket rims that would fit the Delorean (this will prevent the good tires from "egging", become out of round).

Anyway, instead of putting my DeLorean in storage, I've decided to put it in a museum for a year.
