Storage unit find, where to start. 80 924 with 31,000 miles
I have a close friend that is selling me a 1980 924 with 31,000 miles. Brown with light and dark brown interior. The car was driven into his storage building about 7 years or so ago. Turned off and left..
Besides needing a thorough cleaning, fresh battery, and some minor tinkering, I am hoping to get the car back on the road soon.
I am just not sure what is best to do in order to get the car running again after all these years. Guessing draining some fluids, checking fuel tank and or flushing it, not sure what to do first.
I know the car ran great when parked. But that was quite a long time ago. I surely don't want to damage things trying to get it running again.
Any advice on procedures or steps to get running would be great. I am a pretty good parts replacer. Not a mechanic. Hoping to get the car within the next few weeks. It is parked four hours away and dead as a doornail now. Time for a second life!
Thanks for any help or advice!
