Great swap candidate. Clean body and interior. All original, two owners.
Unfortunately, engine is dead.

Priced high on craigslist, will go lower for fellow soloists. Will deliver on my trailer in SoCal for gas money.

Yes it is Craig. It is almost as clean still, just not running now.

What's the deal on the motor? What exactly does "blown" mean in this case? Is it too far gone and/or too expensive to pick up another?

The engine is probably too far gone to warrant repair. The chassis is in great shape for a car it's age, and would be awesome with a new engine.
