I'm looking at a 122 next weekend... 120-130 1962

Although my original goal was to get an 1800 (as evidenced by my post in that tab), I'm actually going to look at a 122 next weekend.

It's a 1962, 4 door, two tone (not sure if it's original, or primer and black). It's in someones warehouse, and looks pretty straight. Hasn't been run for at least 5 years.

The current owner(s) don't have much knowledge on the engine, or the car itself. From the pictures I've seen, there is mostly surface rust, but not a lot. The dash pad looks good, but the insides are a little rough. Nothing as bad as the 1800's I've looked at (that basically require a complete removal of the insides and a start over).

There seems to be one air filter over the carbs.

I somewhat know what the front seats look like, nothing else though.

Is the 62 a good year for 122's? I don't think there are "bad" years, but I meant like rareness wise.

Thanks for any help.
