they only have 5 digets on the speedo so it could be 167000, 267000 or even 367000 make sure. if its in good shaped id say yea, but body parts are hard to find.

yea body parts may be hard to come by but the 20r is a bulletproof engine IMO. My 77 was one of the most reliable cars I have ever owned. Just leaked oil.

I agree fully that the 20R is a great motor. It'll run forever but true that the body parts will more than likely be hard to find. 79-83 parts are fairly easy to find but before that I have not seen any.
