    A compression check wouldn't hurt with that many miles.

    Lots of miles but if it's in good shape, $3500 would be a good deal. Average... $3000 Rough... $2000-$2500? A beater.... $1500? Parts car.... $500-$800

    At least that's what I'd look to pay.

    What POS posted is good info too.

    Let us know what happens.
    ...and across the line.
