Default new to us 76 450sl

We just got a 76 450sl for 900 from a family member it ran before they parked it inside for almost 20 years . It is all original and only has 43000 miles on it . No rust and it hasn't been started in 20 plus years .. besides getting rid of the old gas what else do I need to replace before I try to start it ?

Good morning,

I would clean up the fuel distributor, fuel pumps and fuel injectors, I would also change the oil.

Within shot time you will need to replace ninety percent of everything that is rubber.
