1976 Mercedes diesel won't start

I have a lead on an inexpensive 1976 Mercedes with 6 cylinder diesel. I spoke with the owner and she says the car sat for two years and now won't start. I don't have much experience with diesels so I'm not sure what might be the likely problem. Is it most likely weak to no charge on the battery, or could there be a problem with the fuel sitting for two years in the tank? What course of action is recommended?
