Default Would you buy it?

I have an opportuntiy to buy a used 4.0. Heres what I know:

4.0 out of a 96 xj with 200,000 miles (guys granddaughter rolled it)

I heard it run. Sounds good

Looks like the typical gasket leaks

They are asking 275.00 for it

good deal or no? What should I check before purchase? (compression is a given)

Buy it, rebuild it, then swap it when it is done.
