One of my father's buddies has around thirty cars. A partial list of what I've seen include: model A, air cooled Franklin, Benz drop top (3) , 57 T bird, two jags and the MGTD he drives during the summer. Point being he has told me my entire life the worse thing for any car is just letting it sit, for what it's worth...

A car should never sit...you need to drive it a few miles every other week. This keeps the wheel bearings, rotors, exhaust system from rusting: suspension stays free, brake fluid lines clear, calipers free and lubricated...and the list goes on. Ok, last but not least...let a car sit for a few years and then open the door, the smell of old will permeate the car.
