Where are you?  What is the repair history?  My biggest concern would be
heads/transmission/CV joints with the mileage.  Other than that, it sounds
like a good bargain compared to around here...  (I could buy it with a blown
motor, pay a mechanic to do *all* the work, and still turn around and sell
it at a profit of a thousand dollars...  (If it was a Westy, that would be
*several* thousand)
