I have to agree with all the naysayers here. if the belt is not on the compressor, it's VERY unlikely the compressor is functional.
if you grab the faceplate on the compressor, and can turn it, at least you know it's not siezed. to go further, requires cleaning, replacing the receiver/dryer and vacuum, then a recharge.
IF there is still R12 in the system (pressing on one of the shrader valves for a second with a small screwdriver should emit a puff of gas pressure) you would not need to drain and recharge, just add in R12. however... it's unlikely to be that lucky, or the PO would have done it.
