Looks fair for the price. Pain and bumper are rough, antenna is broken. No engine pix. Test drive the car, if lots of oil smoke then the engine is probably trashed with a bent rod. No smoke does not mean it doesn't have a bent rod, just means the cylinder is not yet oval to the point that it burns oil.

If you can determine if the engine has ever been replace with a factory crate engine (no engine serial # in the right spot), or if the head has been replaced (casting #22 would be an excellent sign) then that is a terrific price.
