Default Storing Z for 6 weeks

I'm shipping off to OCS in a few days and my Z will be siting in my garage for 6 weeks. Is there anything besides the oil and fuel sitting that long that I should be worried about?

buy some baking sodan and put a bunch on some plates.. i would do 3 one on the drivers side floor and one in the passenger and one in the back.


this helps keep the car smelling good and help keep it dry possible (moisture)

If you think about it, some cars sit on the dealer's lot for more than 6 weeks with no problems. The baking soda suggestion above is good.
I suggest that when you're ready to drive it 6 weeks later you check oil, tire pressure, etc.
Are "90 day wonders" now "45 day (6 week) wonders? Good luck!
