85 911 qustions

I am looking at an 85 911 to purchase. I drove it and noticed two issue:
1)some resistance shifting from 1st to 2nd and in particular downshifting from 3rd to second and second to third. I am thinking it is not the clutch, but the synchros?
any ideas on costs here?
2)the steering wheel column has a lot of play. When I hold the wheel, i can move it about half an inch up and down. Any ideas?

Engine seems smooth and strong. Tracks straight, no rattles. NO where to do a PPI without driving it a couple of hours.

It has some dash stitching coming undone and some other interior issues. But it comes with sport seats, and carrera tail.

thanks for the support.
