Default Is it worth it?

I'm not sure if this is the right section or not but i figured since its the lt1 section you guys would know best! I found a 1994 Z28 for sale for $3,500 close to me and considering looking at it. The only problem is it has 182k miles. I was planning on driving it through the winter then once it warmed up i would either rebuild it and bore it over .30 or buy a new engine and go in that direction. Does this sound like a fair price for the car? Any advice would be appreciated. Here's the link to the add on craigslist if that helps any.

lowball him. those are nice wheels but doesnt make up for drivetrain mileage and paint. if you can get it as close to 2k or under then you got a deal. i dont know how hard to find those are in your area but in florida they're everywhere and rarely sell for more than 2500 unless they are in every exceptional condition or low mileage
