What kind of madman owns this now? Where at is it - - maybe flat wideopen empty West Texas?
If my right foot isn't off the gas and onto the brake three times in a minute or more no matter practically where I'm driving or at what hour, I'm surprised. Far more in any kind of traffic.
The only time I drove a car without brakes I had a string tied to the e-brake release handle and had it permanently released, and it was only to drive the car in the quiet early morning from where it broke to where I had tools.
How many dents and dings on it?
Maybe they'll give it to you for free but even at that you're looking at many potential problems, on a 20 year old car of a make known for odd quirks.
If it's so rusty a brake line rusted through, on a Saab with excellent low-rusting brake line alloy and excellent antirust coating on the lines, then the rest of the car probably has rust issues too.
