Barn find! Biggrin

Seriously though, as long as you don't have a rodent or moisture problem in your garage they should be relatively safe. NVRAM batteries will be dead but those can be replaced (Indigo) or ignored (Indigo2). Disks from that era can suffer from striction but gently tapping them sideways on a solid surface can release them and make them spin again.

I've pulled plenty of gear from garages over the years and it never gave me any problems I couldn't fix.
