PA Lookin to buy but has a "small" problem

Bin looking for the right FD to buy for some time now. Friend actually remembered a guy from his job that had one but never drove it. Randomly drove by, whipped back around to go look at it. after talking to the guy, he's looking to sell but not posting it anywhere. My lucky day.
93 FD Touring > 113 on body, 33k on new engine. will need some paint no biggy, tires no biggy, and clutch/flywheel i want do anyway. He's asking $8000 but he just bought a new 3500 diesel and at least a grand in each bumper. lol. thinking he'll take 7 cash. Interior is spotless! molded body kit. flow master exhaust, intake.

Problem>> he apparently drives it up his lane every now and then. Went to fire it up the day i was gana have a buddy of mine check if for being mechanically sound. heh. Some reason it didn't start. so i didnt see it that day He's not entirely sure why, im not exactly sure how long its bin since he drove it last.
Anyone give me common problems of what it might be?! starter, fuse,

really want to snag this deal!

Start by reading the Buyer's Guides in the 3rd gen FAQ thread here:
https://www.rx7club.com/3rd-generation-specific-1993-2002-16/faq-3rd-gen-other-useful-links-68640/

No start could be many things - battery, starter, fuse, flooding. Depends what it was doing when you tried to start it. Try describing that in better detail.

If it's near Hbg, PA let me know. Don't worry I have NO interest in buying it.
