BTW, I love blue too. When I went to go see it for the first time, I thought it was black from the pictures but when I pulled up in the driveway and saw that it was Blue, that is what sealed the deal.

While in storage, should I start the engine about once a month, let it get to normal engine temp and rev up the engine a couple of times to get the oil splashed around a bit, mostly to give the IMS seal a good coating of oil on the inside?
Welcome to the forum and congrats on a beautiful find! Of course I am partial to blue as well

Here is a link to some storage tips and a simple search will find you many more. What ever you do, DO NOT start the car unless you are going to drive it!
