It looks very rough, my guess is poor maintenance history. But that's a guess and still it will have those unmatched 98 R seats. As long as you are fully aware of the conundrum that is a making a 98 AWD whole again, it does seem worth looking at.

And LOL - worth visiting just for the pictures, thank you!

Either way, I'm interested to see what you find out. With those compression numbers, there was a major failure!
