Problems with Bronco II sitting

Looking at a Bronco II that has been sitting for a few years (close to 2, always in a garage). I've been told it gets started every once in awhile (monthly?) and I drove it without any issues. Seller put a new battery in, clutch seemed fine and shifts were easy, tires were all low on air and lots of what I'd call dry rot (cracks), heater worked, all electricals seemed fine. It has about 110,000 miles on the original motor. Is there anything specific to check out or inspect that may be a problem with a truck sitting so long?
