The battery needs to be hooked up to a maintenance charger for that amount of time, if not it most likely won't start and it could have electronic issues afterwards. Engine oil and filter should be new and the fuel tank should be full and a fuel stabilizer put in the tank to keep moisture from building up in the fuel system. Coolant should be checked for proper protection and PH values.
