My dear friend Ralph G in PA suggested I reach out to you guys for guidance.

I'm taking possession of a 86 911 Targa with a 100,000 miles on it. The car has been in storage for 8 years with a fiberglass tarp and no climate control in CT. The car is Guard Red but you would think it was blue. What critical items am I looking to address starting this car and any recommendations for shops in CT I can bring the car to. I know the car is going to need oil and gas change, tune-up, brakes, tune-up, battery and don't know what else.

Thanks Guys
Armand
