Basic questions

I've been after a truck that's been sitting for 7-8 years in a garage and finally have the chance to purchase it. It has a fresh, 8-9 years ago, rebuilt 400ci with less than a few thousand miles on it....like a lot of projects the motor was rebuilt and driven for a summer before getting parked and forgotten. His dad has fired it from time to time to keep it fresh but it's been "awhile" since its been fired and brought up to temp..

My thoughts, pull the plugs and squirt some oil down the holes, roll it over and make sure nothing is stuck (rings) before firing it off. Obviously fresh gas and a carb rebuild, what else?

I'm not looking to be able to drive it home but I also don't need to be rebuilding a motor right now if I can avoid it.
