how hard to fix this 1974 Volvo 142 coupe ? 140-160

Hello:

I just saw this ad in my area:
http://baltimore.craigslist.org/cto/1865579080.html

[I have a 1974 Volvo 142 - automatic, in pretty good shape, except for its leaking oil and the transmission pump is bad.
Mechanic said it would cost ~$3000 to fix. It starts, runs and drives, but not well. Barely any rust at all.

Pic is not of the exact car but it looks just like it.
]

I just wonder how hard to fix the oil leak and auto trany pump? Honesterly, this is the first time I head "transmission pump".

I work on volvo 245 a lot but never work on 142 before. How hard to fix it ? parts is as plenty as 245/240?

Any idea?

I will Email the owner and ask for test drive this weekend.
