Looks alright to me, but honestly- a bus this old and neglected could end up costing a lot more money than a clean well maintained unit in the long run.
Could be totally worth it though, I'd definitely go give it a look. The price is certainly not too bad, but I'd offer them half of what they're asking anyhow.
Something makes me think it hasn't had much love in quite a while.
