I don't agree with mixing oil with ATF and then running an engine.
If I had a similar problem I would
1) Drain the old engine oil (as I believe you have done)
2) Fill with a cheap engine oil of the correct specification + new filter
3) Remove the rocker covers
4) Jump start the starter with the ignition off and make sure that the hydraulic lifters and the spray bar on the engine is operating correctly
5) Replace rocker covers if all is good
6) Try and start the engine
7) After using the car for a few weeks I'd change oil and filter for my favourite brand
After 15 years I'd expect the hydraulic lifters to be more or less empty of oil
If you follow my advice make sure you have a decent battery charger and a decent battery!
