Question 89gt Electrical's Dead at First Start?

Just got my hands on an old 89 GT coupe for free, has been sitting in a garage for a long time, it stopped starting so it was stored, it is now mine and when I jumped it, all the electrical stuff was coming on nice but when I turned the key it all went black and will no longer charge at all. Why??? I hear from the guy who had it, when you disconnect the bat at let is reset it will then charge and continue the cycle of failure like before. Is this some "relay" thing or something?
