Hi,
There's an interesting description for this item on ebay:

Whats the described problem likely to be? Do the V8's have terminal problems, i thought they were pretty reliable?

Sounds like big ends. Like any engine they go if they're abused or hammered. Without further description of the sounds, like what kind, when in the rev range, etc it's difficult to tell. It could be something as simple as the exhaust knocking on the chassis somewhere, or it could be as major as a new bottom end or a new engine required.
If it goes for that price it's worth taking a chance, but without seeing/hearing it I'd budget for some hefty engine repairs or replacement if you're considering it.

mind, 3.5 V8s are not that hard to come by in usable condition. good ones are a bit more tricky.
