Check the bearings in the head, make sure they don't have any kind of grinding sound.

Motor seems original. Spin the armature for unusual sound. May need new power cord.... may need a new motor for that age.

Make sure, as best you can, the tables are flat, not warped. Are the table adjustments still smoothly operating?

Two blades is not ideal. $2500 is way too much, IMO.
