The only way to start my car is to jump start it I recently had to remove the fuse for the horn as the horn would not stop going off on its own. After doing so a day later my car battery was dead I have tried putting the fuse back in and disconnecting the horn and still no luck. I noticed after pulling the fuse the daytime lights would not go off I finally fixed that and after jump starting it and running it for a while I parked it at home and a few hours later tried to start it with no luck the car won't turn over. I have no idea what to do at this point.
 
sounds like you have a open circuit on your car starting with the horn find the broken wire and repair it also check the pacifies gravid of your Battery for a short in the batter and go from there
 
Much of course depends on how you do use your preserved car. If it only comes out occasional weekends on a trundle to the nearest watering hole, for a swift non-alcoholic beverage of course, then the downsides are less of an issue. The points below relate more to cars that are pressed into regular service.

The more a car gets used, the more it's component parts wear out. Good maintenance can minimise such wear, but there's no denying that piling on the mileage can only increase the wear on the running gear, coachwork and even the trim. Tyres, brakes, suspension and engine components will all wear to a greater or lesser degree, and this will bring to light how good the spare parts situation is for your particular motor
