I concur with Ringlee. It would help to know whether this is a spark or fuel issue; does the car turn over with a new battery or not?

To add onto ringlee's post, I would be worried about the gasoline in that tank, and I might go so far as to physically put aq hose in and drain it before I tried to turn it over. Nasty, old gas can totally frag an engine if it hasn't been preserved properlyt with an additive. Replace it with some nice new 91 octane and then see what happens.
