1989 XJ

Hey, all!
So I am going to go look at this tomorrow and take it for a test drive.
Anything specific I should check for?
I don't know much about the vehicle (besides what is listed), except that it is an automatic and just passed state inspection.
The owner has never offroaded in it, but I'm pretty laid back in terms of offroading and probably won't be doing much more than a mostly stock XJ (such as Rockhead's XJ Up-Country) can handle.
Just based off the photos, I am slightly concerned that there might be some wheelwell rub when coming down off of rocks, but that's pretty fixable.
Again, any suggestions?
Thanks!
