List,
I just got a parts car (TR250), and the odometer reads 32k Miles.
The car has spent many years outside without a top.
The interior is not just rotten, it's gone!

Many of the parts look origional.
-Black and yellow heater, rad. fuel hoses.
-The diff. has the bolt-together cover and the gears don't feel sloppy.
-the engine compartment looks origional with exception of the Capacitive
   ignition box.
-Origional vacuum hoses and vac. switch under the carbs.
-The carbs have slotted screws holding the dashpots on.
   Are these supposed to be philips or posidrive?
-Brake and clutch pedal are worn, but not bad.


How can I tell of it's 32k or 132k?
