I have a Rainbow that has been in the freezer for about 4 years!! I was just wondering if I could still mount it after that long!!
If so is there anything I need to do to it before I let it thaw out and skin it!!

It depends on how or what you did to it and how you wrapped it before freezing. Try it , the fins may need some extra work or replacement but you should be able to mount it. When you are ready to paint it you may have to use a base color to hide any real dark areas from freezing.
