Cheap "running" FB somewhere in California

I saw this on eBay and thought some of you might be interested. It's hard to find a 12A with good compression (at least around here), might want to check this out.. I'd like to buy it, but I'm in Michigan right now. It seems like it's just something with the carb, but who knows..

That car looks like it has more like 157,000 miles on it, look at the hood.

Way to be optimistic.. why not go there and check it out? He said it's a problem without the choke on.. I think it's a carb problem, the things only got like 55k miles on it.
