Since I don't know where you located, the first thing ya look for at this
price is rust.  If there is little or no body/pan rust, it's a steal.
The engine will probably have to be replaced and will cost anywhere from
$700.00 on up to $2K depending on whether you do the work or not and the
quality of the engine.  If it needs a tranny, then add $300 or so.  If it
has evidence of water leaking inside, I'd hesitate to by it at all as I'm
not a body person and there are still plentiful '71's in these parts (Sac-
ramento).  Still $650 is not a bad asking price.  I'd start low with the
seller say $350 and work from there.
