If the rear hydro suspension is good and the timing chain and guides have been replaced and it runs and drives very well then it would probably be a good buy.

I do offer a mobile PPI (Pre-Purchase Inspection) in the LA area for a reasonable price for forum members. I can tell you exactly what the car will need now, soon, and in the future and if it's a good car or not. PM me for details.
