yea it probly is worth that. considering there is no VISIBLE rust and the interior is good it means there is no cost on the exterior or interior.

You will just have to do all the rust work on it in the places youy cant see.

Can't see why you see this as a project? It's a complete tidy car, according to the ad, and nothing to suggest otherwise.
Why should you spend anything on the mechanics?
