: Change the oil.
: Then pump out the old gas and get some new gas.
: Squirt oil in the cylinders and turn the engine without starting it.
: Check all other fluid levels, and backflush the cooling system perhaps, if you notice rust.
: Try firing her up and see how it runs.
: If it's been on it's tires all this time, I'm pretty sure you need new rubber. Check you tranny level.
: Try driving it a little, see how it runs.
: Then see if you have any heat or if mice have blocked the ducts with nests and crap.
: I dunno, start on one thing and go around. Like, if it's mechanically okay for now, start on the interior. Make sure all electrical functions work.
: Then start working on the suspension, which is likely shot by now.
: Take your projects one at a time to avoid getting overwhelmed. Set your sights right in front of you, one task at a time.
thanks Mo Mo, engine is shot , wanted to know if we should drop an engin in it or start on the body bill
