Some 3.2's did have valve guide issues, but not all. Bruce Anderson mentions this in his book, and says some 3.2's don't suffer from it at all. He has not been able to nail it down any further than that unfortunately.
If this car does not have the guide problem, depending on maintenance of course, it could still run quite a long way. Check the plugs when you pull them looking for oil. You can try wiggling the valve stems from side to side as well, but unless you know what to look for, that might be a little dicier...
