The car shows 355,000ish miles. Considering what has been discovered the actual milage may be much lower. The question is what should be the culprit? What should we check first? Any input is appreciated.

Thanks for your time...

I forgot to mention the car was aquired for $600.00. Yippy on the serious deal...
