Once you are doing rings you should plan on doing bearings. Also plan on honing the cylinders to help new ring break in. If I had it apart, I would also check valve seals, valve job, valve springs, etc. If it were me, I would consider it a serious engine problem, and plan on completely rebuilding the engine, or installing a good low mileage used one. IMO, make your offer accordingly. Good luck!
