rack and struts 700 1989

Hi all
I am looking at buying another 89 740 wagon. The old 89 740ti was crunched in an accident last month. The current prospect has a couple of problems. The owner says the steering rack needs the seals replaced and the car needs new front struts. What I need is some idea of the cost to replace the seals the struts. I searched the archive and found that it takes special tools to replace the seals. Is this true? What is the chance of rack/pump damage if it had a long occuring leak? I want to get some idea of the cost /time involved before I check the vehicle out this afternoon. The car is an 89 740 gl wagon with 200,000 miles.
Thanks all
Brad
