I would suggest not accepting a unit that "needs work" unless you have someone available who knows how to fix them. Like most mechanical devices, there's any number of things that can and do go wrong. That would be me - Biggest concern is the tank. Considering stripping it down and sending it out for hydrostatic testing. Even if the tank is NG due to corrosion, the motor and compressor head are salable parts. Also, determine the noisiness of the unit. You cannot have a noisy compressor indoors and expect to be able to converse, much less record audio/video.
Good point - the planned location is in the furnace room, on shock mounts

CDL has an offer on the table for the donation of a used 5HP air compressor.
Grainger Model is 3Z724, needs work.
Any value during workshops other than air for soldering stations?
