Find a mechanic who can get #3 plug out. Then re-do the leak down test; it might be crud on the valve/valve seat of cyl #1 causing a false high number. Cyl #3 plug must be removed, so tell the seller that without complete numbers you will move on. Is the car fresh out of winter storage? Has it not been used for years? You must post a lot more info in order for us to help you to build a complete picture of the car.
