Doesn't sound like you want a parts car since you have no place to store it or work on it. Winter is coming and you're in VA. Get the exhaust and any other major parts if you can - but not the car.

I'd force myself to pass. I turned down a 617 SD because the paint was bad. I think the yard mis-diagnosed fuel filters as a bad valve & would have come down to $500 or so.
