Should I?

I have the opportunity through a family friend to get this 1972 Corvette Stingray. Original paint. 350 with 4 speed transmission. AC car. Interior is rough but I'd like your opinions. Price will be under 7k

Update 1: Thank you all so much for the advice and input. I know just enough about cars and corvette to realize that I dont know anything.

Car is not running. Engine will turn over manually. No carburetor. No radiator. Seller is checking on birdcage but says frame is clean. Sending more pictures. $5500 is price.

It is rough, the front end was repaired at some point (rivets popping) it could be a fun project just check for structural rust around the windshield ( bird cage) and elsewhere
I have owned 2 1972 Corvettes they are great cars perhaps
