Yeah, i'd go for it 800 isn't bad for a good body and frame. 22R's are easy to come by.

I paid a 1200 for mine and it barely had brakes, a 4 speed that poped out of gear, air in the slave cylinder, many electrical gremlims (no brake lights), and the POS was leaking every type of fluid known to a rig, motor was high milage but decent and I felt like I got a good deal. Its all fixed now! and I love it
