It has a slighty damaged left fender and 179,000 on the odo. Asking for $1100. Engine idles really well and looks very clean. Anyone else might be interested?

For the price, I would buy it for the parts alone.
If it runs and does not need major service, you got lucky.
Best advice:
A spare car is like a spare tire, in the way all the time, but you are happy to have it when your prime vehicle goes down.
