nothing if you take it for a ride every blue moon. if it just sits motor could seize- bad gas- brake rot. gasket rot- tranny could do same as motor... don't know your time frame 1 yr probley nothing. 2 maybe but not likely 3 probley somthing not great 4-6 prepare for the junk yard
Depends on how long it just sits. The battery will discharge in around 3-6 months. Tires will eventually go flat, and dry-rot. Rodents can get in the car and destroy wiring and the upholstery. Gasoline in the tank will start to go bad in 3 months, and will be completely unusable in 2 years . Carburetor or fuel injectors may clog. Brakes may seize. Engine may eventually seize depending on how long it sits, and where it was parked. Lots of bad things can and will happen to a car that is left unattended.
