Hello everyone, I just purchased a 2000 C5 with 19000 original miles that has been sitting in a heated garage for the past 15 years untouched. My question to you is where do I start to get this thing in proper maintenance to run and hit the road. I know the gas is bad and havnt even tried to start it, I will start with belts, fluids, battery, etc. My question is what are some key items I should take a look at? I really appreciate all your help. This has been a dream car since I was in high school, and this opportunity presented itself and I want to be the person to bring this beautiful car back to life.

 

Welcome to the forum.

Start by changing all of the fluids in it. Also you'll need to replace all of the tires including the spare because they're too old. I'd run several bottles of Techron FI cleaner thru it. Then check for leaks once it is running.

 

Beautiful Yellow!!
