Helping IDing/Pricing a Flandria

my size, priced at $85 + a long drive, but from what I had previously read Flandria made some nice bikes, can't see jack/sh~t from the pictures. Waitin to hear back on whether it's still available.

That's not one of the nice ones.
Can't say that I've ever actually seen one of the nice ones - though I'd like to.

not even worth a lowball offer for the frame for a ssfg conversion? I'm kinda hoping to fall into a bike that I'm not worried about when I go see a movie and whatnot tbh

For me a long drive is 60 to 100 miles each way. 20 mpg? 6 to 10 gallons round trip, that around here is 26 to 44 dollars. Discounting wear and tear and the time cost.
Images are poor, so a bunch of questions. Would the guy take $25 dollars for it? Probably not, he will hope a local will bite.

Looks like jack-sh~t to me. Pass.

Pictures are good enough to see it is a dog.
