Getting a sitting car going.

So I'm hoping to bring life back to an 86 RX7. It is my grandfathers, but he has four FCs. It ran and drove until it was parked because of a bad wheel bearing and coils. It has around 54k miles on it, but has been sitting since about 2006. Since I am unfamiliar with rotaries, I am wondering what steps I would need to take to get it running once again. Thank you for your help.

New fuel, fuel filter, and possibly fuel sock and injectors removed and serviced.

I'd say that pretty much hit the nail on the head. Thanks!
