    judging by the valve covers it is not a 20,000 mile car.

    I'd say this is a $2,000 car at the most.

    mine has 122,000 mi which i consider LOW for a 34 year old car normal miles per year is considered 10,000 mi. it figures out to 3000 some odd mi per year and i am telling you it is way nicer than this!

    definitely 120K, maybe 220K, no air cleaner, velcro crap on the dash, paint 'n' wood are garbage...

    how long has he been driving that without an air filter? I bet if that wasn't removed for the photo op, that this thing burns equal parts oil and gas...

    Isnt it dangerous driving without the air cleaner in place? Yeah, from the looks of the buildup of oil on the valve covers, it looks more like 120K miles or more.

    No flaws? I surely see some... even on the outside the tailgate woodgrain is in bad shape.

    Depending on the answer to the air cleaner question I might not mind having this one but only for less than half the asking price. Different calculus if it were a 69. ;)
