having issues starting a 77 280z

i acquired this car after the p.o. gave up on a wiring migraine. (search in electrical to see the ridiculousness) the owner before him had it running but went to work one day and came out to be unable to start it. i have fixed the wiring and i am getting fuel and spark. i can smell the fuel and know the distributor is firing when attempting to start it. the only thing is that the car has been sitting for about a year. it had a little under a half tank of gas when it was parked. i just put 5 gallons of premium in it w/ some fuel injector cleaner.

it turns over but just won't start after about 30 minutes of trying. i don't know what the problem could be. it is blowing 2 fuses, dome light and flasher. has it just sat for too long and being stubborn, or is there something else i should be looking at?

another thing, when it's cranking, the tach gradually moves up and stays. does this mean anything?
