Sorry make that air filter on the left side around or just above 
the middle.

In https://images.craigslist.org/00b0b_anw4dKevNqA_600x450.jpg, there is
a small, filter-looking thing just above the oil fill. That cannot be the
air intake can it?

In the ad he says,

I posted the car in Dallas because I live in the poorest
town, in the poorest state in America.

I don't know how he can say that about Clovis, NM, since Cannon AFB is
nearby. He ought to see Vaughn or even Moriarty (which is better than
Vaughn).

They are both the same thing, an air filter on the oil return 
pipe that used to run from the air filter to the oil pan. It was 
put on to keep dirt out and become the new blow-by exit since he 
blocked the old one on the valve cover when he took out the 
original air filter to allow more dirt... ah make that air into 
the intake. In the first picture it is new and in the second it 
looks older. The air filter is in the second picture lower left. 
You can just see it.

Shoot.  Too far away...

Not an '85.  SLS works. Fresh battery and tires.  $1500 sounds
