Guy said it was his dad's and has sat in the garage for 5 years since he passed away. Got him down to 3600 cash for it. Think it is worth going for? The dents he mentioned are more scratches than dents

Hard to tell but looking at he pics that bike would probably bring that much in parts. I'd roll the dice on it.

That's a good deal. Very low mileage, too.

Yeah. Figure it will need a new battery, carbs cleaned, tank flushed, and change of fluids at least

In the blink of an eye you will have over $6K in a $5K bike.
