What would cause these leaks?
 
My car is in storage and I went to check up on it and it has leaked out all the coolant, transmission fluid and oil. WTF? What on gods green earth would cause all of these fluids to leak? Over the summer, I had a tonne of work done (heads, cams, intake, windage tray, etc) and I'm guessing the parts were slapped together.

Cheers

Only feasible way this could happpen is if the mech who did the work in the summer only torqued the bolts down snug, then when the cold weather set in the parts contracted and the fluid leaked out. Other than that maybe a gremlin snuck in to your storage area and losened all the bolts. You'll need to check all the bolts/nuts where the leaks occured with a tork wrench and possibly check the seals if you think they have been damaged. This is definetly a weird occurence for all the fluids to leak out, one fluid would be bad enough!

Good luck and keep us updated.

Happy new year
