Agreed.
You have to do your detective work to determine if the claimed mileage on a 28 year old car is accurate.
But you have to have a starting point, and my starting point on a car that old, with claimed mileage that low, is to be skeptical. To go further, if I hear of a relatively common production car that has been driven less than 1500 miles per year for almost 30 years, I flat out don't believe it, until it can be proven otherwise. That proof consists of a lot of things - physical condition is one. Documents are another.
Funny how so many of these "low mileage," too-old-for-Carfax cars never have a single shred of documents (not a single invoice retained over 30 years) to back the claimed mileage.
