Ken,

Maybe you should use one of those covers that 'breaths'. On a related subject, if you are storing it for any length of time I would disconnect the battery. Since the Model A is a positive ground system the frame and body are connected to the + side of the battery. An easy way to turn iron into rust is to connect it to the + side of a battery and put it in water.
I have heard of people that would surround their car with chicken wire (do not let the chicken wire touch the car) Then they would connect the - side of a DC transformer to the frame of the car and the + side to the chicken wire. The hope was that the chicken wire would rust and the car would not.

Bob
