Default Out of long term storage

I'am getting ready to start a 27 T Roadster thats been stored for many years. It was amatured restored years ago and then stored in a old chicken coupe here in Montana. Is there a list of things I should do before trying to start. I haven't owned a T for 20 some years so I do forget a lot of things in my older years. Any advice?

New fluids, lube moving joints per owners manual, air up the tires, and clean any electrical contacts. I might have also forgotten something but others will want to help also.
