When I am coasting or accelerating up to about 40 mph. I am hearing a clunking sound from the front driver side tires that changes as speed changes. I dont think its anything drivetrain related because putting it in N while moving doesnt change the sound. Also, it seems to stop when braking and does not change when turning. The car sat outside from Jan till this weekend when I decided to start driving it. Any Help?

I am going to look into it tomorrow if its not raining. Its weird cause I drove it to a buddies house fine on the 30 mile trip down then back it started doing it.

could just be a flat spot on the tire from sitting. Or it could possibly be the caliper slides sticking.

I thought it could be the caliber too. Its weird how it just started when I was coming back though.
