I don't see a problem but I would consider pumping up the air pressure in the tires and perhaps a set of tire cradles.

I agree, and...

Tire cradles and 50psi would be good to prevent
deforming the tire at the bottom. A battery tender
would be very important. Washing the car, and
lastly, buy some Stabil fuel stabilizer, and add it
to the tank before filling it up, and then running the
car for fifteen minutes. This will prevent any possibility
of gumming in the fuel lines.
