I don't fully agree. Or, in other words there's an exception to every
rule!! My wife and I just bought an 81 with just 3500 miles on it (speedo
works and the rest of the car confirms the low mileage). The previous owner
stored it VERY well and the ONLY thing we have had to do the car
mechanically is to replace the fuel pump after I inadvertantly ran the car
out of gas.

Now, I'm not disagreeing with you altogether. A constantly driven car will
usually be a better, more reliable car to buy. But there are exceptions!
