For 1K...probably a good deal. I'd ask to have it for a day or for half a day. Take it to you local indy and ask him to give a quick overview of the car. He'll check it out for you and tell you if it's worth the 1K. I mean if i paid $1K for it and then turned around and had to pump $4k into it just to get it in good condtion... i'd say NO. But typically your going to have to pump money in it for that price. No rust would be absolutely great. Have it checked out frist, then get back with us to let us know about your findings.
