My 07 GT basically sat for two years. Don't ask why. Threw a battery in it and it started right up. Blew some Grey smike but went away. Oil level good. Coolant good. No ticks. Nothing out of the ordinary. Needs brakes, tires, rear diff seal, and plugs. Replace all fluids, obviously. What else should I be concerned with? Thanks!
 
Do the windows work good?
clean rust
lubricate everything possible.
You are good to go.
 
All fluids need to be inspected, tested, and/or replaced. Lubricate all mechanisms. Check dry rot on all rubber, seals, hoses, belts looking for cracks and signs of wear.
 
Was it parked outside? Look for rodent damage. You can smell'em.
Drive'er easy for awhile and see how she acts.
You already have a good start with all new fluids. Good move! :)
