Good to see that it will fire up and run even briefly. Still, I'd test the compression just to be sure it doesn't suggest another reason it was parked. Not sure about the failure to restart. My first guess would be an ignition problem (coil, ballast resistor, distributor, timing). Check what you can before replacing parts and especially the coil/distributor wiring. The PO might have tried to get creative with the ignition system, too.
