Action can be rebuilt pretty easily, but is a lengthy task. Does it have the original hammers? If so you might want to keep them if possible or have the hammer moldings recovered. Does it have a plate or just iron bracing. It may look older than you think because they lagged behind in American style improvements. If it actually has a plate it would be newer than 1830. Are the pedals wooden? Take really good notes on everything you see. Do a careful estimate and then double it or it won't be worth your time or a rebuilder's.
