Need Preview for "Mystery" Deuce & Issues

I need a preview/inspection on a "1970 M35A2 2 1/2 ton" (says the article) Deuce in Boerne, Tx. I dont have an exact address, pics, etc yet as im waiting on a reply. If anyone would be willing to take a look that would be awesome. I dont want this potential deal running off.

The article says: "it starts and runs needs the master light switch and the mastercyclinder needs a kit put in because the brakes worked fine untill the cold weather made it fail. It has 72237 miles and 10668 hours on it."

I have no idea to what extent these issues are but any input on them would be great, especially cost for repair if able. Yes I know its hard to estimate without any pictures and such but a ball park range would work. Ive heard the DOT 3 could have just froze and sprung a leak in the cold for the later but thats just an idea. As for the electronics im at a loss. And I know the miles on these engines arnt as relative as it would be for a modern day car but thats one of the highest miles ive seen on a deuce for sale. Any input on that? At least I know it didnt sit for 30 years haha.

Thanks in advance for the oncoming wave of answers, nicks, and pokes haha.

Pass me the information. It may be the same one a friend looked at that said all the gauges worked but the oil gauge so that spooked him. I can still look at it one way or the other for you.

The guy gave me no pictures and told me this:

"i have a tx title and it has a Continental and a turbo the tires are titan t hawk military900-20 and they are98% new and i dont have more pix"

I'm prying for more info but something seems out of place here.
