your car after too long.

Perhaps you should consider applying some type of light undercoating to the suspension parts as they tend to rust if exposed to salt water.

Peter Hsu

Many, many years ago when I was reading about new ways of transporting stainless steel DeLoreans across the ocean, I read that they would coat the body with some special stuff (WD-40?) to keep the salt away.

I would park where it would be sunny for the most time and not put a car cover on so that the salt can go away better.
