Just got me a new 02 z/28 First thing is just wow this is a great site, so much info, and really great people.
Well i have wanted a ws6 for a long time, but i found a nice (really nice) 02 z/28 with 21,000 miles on the clock, one owner, and pretty much unmolested. there were a few issues like a bad passenger side window motor witch was fixed by the dealership. I just noticed a noise from the a/c clutch when its not engaged. i think its just where the previous owner stored the car after it got wet and so it has a little bit of rust witch is making the noise. i was just wondering if there any thing else i need to check from where he did not drive it much?

Nice find. I just got a 99 WS6, it's been driven with 160K.
Pull the codes from the OBD port. If no codes, take it for a nice long drive to see if any pop up. Charge your cell b4 u take her out tho.
Check for leaks with a piece of cardboard where you park. Always park the same over it so you can track accumulation if there is a leak.
Change the oil n filter and fuel filter.
Run Seafoam or Berryman's B12 through the gas.
Change any fluids that need it.
Make sure your tires are at proper psi.
I'm new here but it's a start.
