As of July 9, 2009 here is a conversation via email from the seller if this helps.

It's not without it's faults, but hey, what does anyone expect from a 36 year-old economy car? I'm thinking when a guy checks it out in person they will find it as good as any they are likely to see for sale. To be clear: The (re)paint has some rusty spots coming through, but the rocker and floor panels are solid (so is the trunk area) and the car shows no evidence of being smashed up and rebuilt. In short, just what I said in the ad: A good driver, or a great starting point for an enthusiast who wants to go all out.
Yes, the rear window defogger is one I didn't expect to see. Now that I think about it, I haven't even tried to use it yet. (I guess that's a good thing - no moisture inside the car, which means the weatherstrips are working...)
In any case, the car remains garaged, and I'll just hang onto it if nobody pulls the trigger. I was thinking of using the proceeds to fix up a motorcycle I got from a friend who died a while back, but that is something I can peck away on at a slower pace if need be.
Let me know what you are thinking. It would be good to see the 1200 go to someone who will appreciate it.
Thanks for your inquiry.

If you are concerned about Rust, it has rust in bad place. You will need to fix the rust and repaint outside and inside.

Hi, He said is to busy this week to send me photos,If you could send someone to see the car it would be perfect. Maybe he can take some photos and send it to me.

here is the advertisement: http://portland.craigslist.org/wsc/cto/1240046180.html

Seems like a fair price, depending on how much rust it has. Perhaps we can get someone in that city to examine it. Would you have it shipped to C.R.?

Hi, Thanks
Yes for sure I can help you buy the 1200, but you are asking me for a Pick up? Here In Costa Rica the pick up is very popular, but the coupes and sedan are extremely rare
