it should have the 603.971 motor. the rodbender. if the rods have been upgraded or the engine has been rebuilt, factory, it'll likely be a strong vehicle for years to come, if it's original, it's life is questionable. many have exceeded 200K, but many many have failed rods/pistons/etc... look for signs of oil consumption, and or burning. listen for scraping/loping from the engine at idle...
