The most likely thing to deteriorate on an old camera is the performance/accuracy of the shutter. It would be interesting to see how good the accuracy and repeatability is after 50+ years. You can buy a tester for $49.

You might not notice that it has drifted over time, because film has good latitude, and the exposure on old equipment is fairly imprecise anyway.
