Could dirty brake fluid cause this? When I took it down to get inspected a week ago they said the brake system should be flushed.

All parts should be original, but I am not positive.
I was originally told it was a 289, but now he says it has a 302 long block engine with about 175k miles on it.
It is a California car, so there shouldn’t be any rust, although I have not inspected it. It apparently has not been run in about 20 years. I was told that an electrical problem prevented it from starting, and it’s just been in storage since then.
The engine and transmission SHOULD be functional but I can’t be sure that everything works properly. It will likely need a completely new interior, and windshields, the engine probably needs to be rebuilt, and everything drained, since it’s full of 20 year old gas. The dash is supposedly shattered from a rock through the back windshield.
It does not have AC, and has been repainted a pale yellow color long ago, over the gray…
I know nothing about these cars.
Just to clarify, I am looking into buying this car and not selling it.
This is a follow up on another question I asked yesterday.
Like I said, I don’t really know much about these mustangs, so I may have said incorrect things, but I did my best.
Anything helps, thank you!!
I have not been able to acquire the VIN yet, so can someone tell me what it is worth by what I described?

~~~ UPDATE
——————————-
The VIN number, or whatever it is on these older cars is 6r07c186121 , so the engine is type C meaning its a V8 200hp?
Heres what I found from it:
Year: 6 1966
Plant: R San Jose, CA
Body Series:072 Door Hardtop
Engine: C289 2v V8
Unit: 186121 186121
I said the engine is a 302 long block, but I don’t think that is an actual engine, like I said I don’t know what what I’m talking about. The owner stated that engine pieces were replaced by newer 302 long block parts - hopefully I’m making sense…
