Could be about a thousand things. Way too much to get into here without more details.

Buying a vehicle that doesn't run means the price needs to reflect that.

If this were simple, the seller would most likely fix it.

Factor in a complete engine replacement into your numbers. If it is something simple, then you will be pleasantly surprised.

If he is asking $550, he will take $350.
