Is it wrong?

I have found a site that expired a couple of years ago. The site is mainly pure HTML and is very content rich with many many pages.
The wayback Machine has done a good job and seems to have indexed most, if not all pages.

I have searched for various page on the expired site and cannot find any current online version.

Would it be wrong to create a site out of this expired site? Am I still treading on someone else's intellectual property or does it not matter now?
