How to store your truck - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hello all!

I love the site, this is my first post and I'm hoping you all can help me.

I have a 1971 C10 (350) and won't be driving it for 6 months, possibly longer. I will store it in a garage but what things do I need to do to prepare it for some long-term storage?

Do I put it up on blocks?
Drain the fuel, oil, trans. fluid?
Disconnect the battery?

If someone had a good checklist of storage tips, that would be great.

Thanks so much everyone and I appreciate the great site.
