I must be missing something.  It needs a ton of work and is an unattractive
color.  Hardly a flip candidate - more like a pit.

I definitely don't need another car, running or not, and have no place 
to keep it, but for $1k it might be a decent deal.  That might not sway 
the seller though.  I'll keep an eye on it.  If he's smart he will flog 
it on other CL sites that might have more enthusiast interest.

It is a bit of a rustbucket and definitely needs a serious Martha’ing. However, 
if it’s viable as a running car, I bet I could drop $1000 getting it cleaned up 
and sell it for $4000-$5000.

And since it’s not running I would also expect to pay less than the ask for it,

Holy Mother of Pearl! Buy it, drive it until it pukes, sell the remains. That’s 
a steal. I would buy that in a second as a flip it it could be barred over to 
be sure the engine isn’t seized.

I think Poos would not want to get it running -- it's very rusty.
