Default After 2 years, what to do?
I am having my car taken to a shop next week and I have a few questions. Its been sitting for a little of 2 years in a garage and I want to know what should be replaced? I have told them all the fluids(tranny engine and rear end,
) New gaskets. Any other precautions I should take? Thanks

That's not along time, change the oil, put in some new gas and see if it starts. Then drive away.
