Very simple car to work on, most mechanics can do it. Take it to a good mechanic, explain it has been sitting and they will do the right things to get it going. MOst notably the engine should not be tried ot be started before some lubrication is put into the cylinders and allowed to sit for a day, then turn it over by hand first.

Also the fuel tank may have lots of crud in it as amy the fule pump and carb. Have it checked for that.
