    For $800, not a bad deal even with its problems.

    Agreed. That is a good price. With some light work that would be in great shape.

    I agree also. For the condition and price it sure seems fair. Drive it and find out.

    SUPER LOW MILEAGE (has flipped once. So, reads 09xxx miles, but is actually 109xxx miles.)

    These are the comments that confuse me. Just when does low mileage stop being low mileage. Or in this case SUPER low milage when in fact the mileage has already flipped long ago?
    To me anything over 50,000 is no longer super low.
    PS Just found out the original old couple once parked near a barn while buying tomatos. ;)

    In a world of cars with close to ten million miles on them and that one is unusual for that year, I'd say yeah that's low.

    It's the "no major leaks" comment that scares me.

    If 109,000 is "super low" mileage, how bad does a leak have to be for the seller to consider it "major"?
