Looks like it's been sitting there a while. Not running $3200 is way more than it's worth! They will probably be insulted when you offer $500, still a gamble at that price!
If you get it, and winch it on a trailer, check all the oil drain plugs for water. Don't change any fluids yet, just drain the water and when oil comes down tighten the plugs. If you get water out of the engine drain, there may be water in the cylinders. If water in the cylinders it's probably stuck, at the least remove the injectors before trying to turn it through.
If it is not stuck it may start right up. It will need a fully charged, good hot battery. Don't crank on it more than a few seconds.
Check the fuel supply to the lift pump. Be sure it has clean fuel and no water. If it is puffing white vapor it is getting fuel, if no vapor no fuel is getting through the injectors. Try bleeding them by cracking the lines loose at the injectors.
Best to have the air cleaner disconnected and a board handy to smother it just in case of a runaway!
