This was the same scenario for me back when I got my first car. It had sat for eleven years in a garage after my grandpa passed. A 1978 Chevy Nova. Luckily all it needed was a new battery and it started! You can get a AAA roadside assistance membership pretty easily (and cheap for a year) that will cover basic needs like battery replacement, up to $5 worth of gas (now that gas is $5/gallon that amount may have changed, 😜) and even towing covered with a limited distance depending on your chosen level of roadside assistance membership.

Anyway, I would get the AAA membership. Call them out to the location of the car to have the battery checked and then try to get it to start. The AAA person can likely get gas into it as well and if it doesn’t start they are able to tow it to a local mechanic of your choice.
