Well you know the problems I've had and mine wasn't sitting that long. I would sugest taking it to a shop (if you can't do this yourself). The entire fuel system should be checked (fule tank filters and so on for rust). Most of the sensors are most likely shot. And of coarse new plugs, wires, cap, rotor (the full tune up). And as your looking the exaust is in bad shape. Hopefully you can do most of this yourself because mine just cost me 2200.00 and I still have to shell out over 1000.00 to change the cam. So may your fortune be better than mine. Good luck!!!!!!
I bought a corvette from a neighbor that was sitting for two years....The brake fluid was on the floor, the radiator was showing the core, the oil was 1.5 quarts low, Ps fluid low....Prefilght it like a pilot would before a flight in a strange airplane. Check and replace everything! Belts and hoses are a special point to check and replace as needed. pump the oil pressure up before you give it spark and get oil everywhere you can for that first startup if possible.
