Minty fresh '87 NA sat for 7 years

I just picked up this remarkably clean 1987 NA. I want to introduce myself to the community here as I'll probably be asking a lot of questions. It's been sitting in a garage for 7 years, so my first priority is addressing the essentials: fuel system, hydraulic systems, fluids, electrical, etc. I'm in the planning and research stages now and I'm wondering if there is anything specific to the Z31 that I should examine or address. Here are the first items I'm going to be tackling:

1. Fuel will obviously need to be drained and lines cleared. I've seen some discussion on pulling the line at the rail and using the pump to push the old fuel out.
2. Previous owner said slave cylinder is leaking - I haven't looked closely yet, but there is definitely a leak somewhere in the system.
3. Driver window is stuck down.

I haven't fully acclimated to the forums here just yet, so I'll be poking around tech posts for a while, but if there's anything specific y'all can offer for these or any other potential issues I'd greatly appreciate it.

I'm really excited to get this old girl up and running again. Here she is:
