Start by just giving it to me!
Proceed slowly and carefully. If it has been sitting for many years it's going to need a thorough going over, and a good many parts will need to be replaced- in many ways a high-mileage but scrupulously maintained car is a better bet than a low-mileage car that has been sitting and/or ill maintained for a long time. I'd say every fluid will need to be changed, every joint/bearing checked and greased, lots of gaskets will need changing. It will be work, but with that kind of low original mileage, if the body is solid it will be worth it.
Brake fluid is a nasty substance over time, so you'll probably want to replace or rebuild the cylinders- at the very least, flush and bleed the heck out of the system and assess.
Be patient- don't be tempted to 'just get it running,' but really give it good going over.
And bookmark this site! You'll be here often!
