You do not say what condition it is in. The very FIRST step, is to acquire a parts catalog AND a shop manual for it. A FACTORY shop manual is far preferable to the I&T version, but the I&T is a lot easier to find.

If the engine is stuck (pistons are frozen in their cylinders) then that will be an early priority. For that, you WILL need the instructions from a good shop manual. Further advice will require more information!
