    I’d run a compression check and make sure it’s not missing any pieces. If the motor turns over, has good compression and the gears seem to shift OK, I’d say $65 is a good offer. I’d be willing to give him his $100 because vintage motors like that are hard to come by in my area. If it all passes muster, I’d love to have that one for my next restoration project.
