88 3.2 Valve Guide Quesiton

Having a PPI done on an 88k mile 3.2 from 88. Looks like the car is in great mechanical condition. The valve guides have never been done (been going to Aurel & Don's in the valley for the last eight years on the car and think I'll continue to go there once I buy it since they know the girl), and I was curious if the car has passed it's 70k mark and seems okay, if that means the valve guides probably won't be an issue so long as I don't red line the car and give her the proper love.

Obviously you can't be 100% sure until it happens, but just don't want to buy this as a DD and then get hit with a 7k bill to fix an issue that is more prevalent that I thought. From what I read, the 88s were less prone to valve guide issues, though they certainly did have their fair share.

Anything else I should know about this particular model from Pelican experience?
