I wouldn't buy it without knowing for certain that the front frame horns are rust free. I have an '02 Dodge and this week I will be pulling the power steering gearbox from where it attaches to the frame. The rust isn't bad on mine but there is some surface rust. I'm going to grind/wire wheel the rust off and use rust converter on it, then paint it.
I have to pull the gearbox to to the bearing pre-load adjustment. If there's no adjustment left I'm going to buy another box from Red Head or have them rebuild mine. I'll be killing two birds with one stone.
If it's rusty, don't buy it. The bolts to the gearbox or idler arm can literally pull right through the frame
