The 1979 corvette I just purchased was in storage for 12 years. The front lights work however the rear tail lights do not. What to do?

First of all check your fuses, if they are all good ,then pull your bulbs and check the contacts.
While your at it pull and ohms test on them .You need a multimeter,put the dial on 20k and put one led on the side of bulb and one on one contact, if needle moves it's good ,then do other contact and check it . Good luck.
