[QUOTE="johnrodgers, post: 8402, member: 431"] here is the deal.. my grand father passed away two years ago when i was 14, and he was a car enthusiast. he owned an antique MG midget,2005 mustang gt and finaly his year 2000 corvette. since the only people left to deal with the cars were my mom and widowed grandmother they simply stayed in storage. anyways now that that i am old enough to drive and i now know it isn't good for cars to just sit in storage im looking at getting the vette going again. it has not been started for roughly one and a half years, so i am quite hesitant to even try turning it over. so basically to cut to the chase im wondering if any of you even think i should try to fire it up and if not what should i do in terms of maintenance before starting it. i was thinking changing the oil, putting fresh gas in it and checking the tire pressure and charging the battery . any help or opinions here would be greatly appreciated. i simply dont want my grandfathers favorite car to sit and rott.
