Tim, if the body doesn't have mirror lockup think long and hard about it as the early versions are prone to failure of the winder mechanism. You cannot get this fixed. You will see a lot of early 6x7s advertised on eBay that fit this description or are "not tested".
If it's the 67 series or has the MLU that is much less likely to be a problem and you should still be able to get any problems with a 67 fixed. In either case, put a roll of film in it and try it out. The winding action will take more effort than on a 35mm body but should be smooth. Remember you're winding on a lot more film and tensioning a much larger shutter. As for the lenses, well the 55/3.5 uses a 100mm (i.e. expensive)filter while the 55/4 is smaller and takes a 77mm filter.

What should I check on the body to determine its condition beyond surface cosmetics? Thanks, Tim
