Blown motor?

Picked up an 89 GXL for 800 and was told it ran when last parked in 2006. Fuel tank was removed and resealed but never installed. After sourcing missing parts I got it all back together. Wouldn't start...so ran a compression test and this is what I saw.

Thoughts?

Blown or stuck seal. Most likely blown. Most get parked for a reason.

Yeah this is true. Didn't even hit 100k, guess its time to pull it out.
