Hey...Thanks for all your videos. This old man has enjoyed them greatly. A neighbor has given me (Free) the above mentioned car. It's been parked for approx 2 years. What are your recommendations that I follow before even trying to starting it up? (beyond draining fuel, replacing oil and cleaning plugs).

Have a Blessed Day...Jack

Check all your fluid levels.  Get some starting fluid.  Change the fuel filter (if it's not in the tank.)  When a car is sitting that long, I usually pull the spark plugs and put a squirt of oil into each cylinder.

The answers above should apply here too.
