Sounds like you have a good start plum. You actually want to consider changing the oil in the spring, not the fall. The oil gets water condensating in it while sitting. Some people put jackstands under it, not bringing the wheels off the ground, but removing sprung weight for the most part. Make sure your anti-freeze is 50/50, don't start it in the winter, and put the battery inside the house and think about getting a "batter minder" - an intelligent trickle charger that keeps the battery topped off, but wont overcharge like a std. trickle one would do. Think about putting duct tape over your intake and exhaust to keep out the rodent population. I've seen a turbo after a rat & nest was sucked in after winter - its not pretty.
