I'd be glad to help you with that. Much of this will be easier on the lift. Drain and refill all the fluids. Gas tank, oil, coolant, etc. Then bleed the brakes. a quick once around with some grease, WD40, and then nut and bolt the car, you should be pretty much ready to go. Be sure the battery is up to the task. Take a sniff of the trans fluid, make sure it isn't burned or dirty. Wait to check the level until it is running in neutral.

Of course all of this is assuming that the car was running OK when it was parked.

make sure you check for rot under the car be sure to check frame to torsion bars is nice and heathy, i learned first hand that if its looking rusty under the floors/frame it only takes a short time before you have a broken torsion bar or another vital piece of frame
