if the motor runs strong id jump on it. even if the motor isnt in great shape, a few hundred bux for a rebuild kit and a weeks worth of work and youll have a new motor.

Best thing to do would be to drive it. See if you hear any wierd sounds. Check gauges and such. Also be sure to look under the car after driving to see if there's any leaks.
