The biggest issue with sitting is the rusting of the frame if it has been out in the weeds or something similar.

Temporary lights can be had inexpensively, and if you trust your trucks brakes the trip can be made. Just would need to be extremely careful, and I would not advise it.

I can't see it taking more than a couple days to get it road worthy.

Pictures of the trailer if you can; I like the nostalgic set up.
