Preferably you'd change oil before putting the car away, so idk why people are suggesting to change the oil immediately after taking out of storage. Good advice here so far but one thing I'd add that you may or may not do is to pull the fuel pump fuse while starting the first time to lube up the engine prior to any ignition.
