Hey guys,
I was just wondering...I recently just bought an 81 from a relative that now lives in florida. He garaged it for around 6 years and only took it out once in awhile around the block to keep it running. The car is in excellent condition everything is original.
My question is what should i be doing as far as maintenance and replacement after it has been sitting for 6 years or so and is there anything i should be looking out for after i've driven it a little bit? I am by no means an expert on historical cars but I have great respect for this car seeing as I fell in love with the curves the first day i saw it. I have some knowledge of corvettes just from doing a quite a bit of research on them in the last few months. I plan on replacing plugs, wires, oil and filter change, fuel and air filter change, most likely brakes possibly rotors. Brake lines?? If anyone has any advice or comments for me I would greatly appreciate it. Thanx
