Would also have to heft it to see how much it weighs;some of the old steel bikes were made of cheap steel that was heavy as crap.

Hard to tell from the pics,but kinda think it's too big. E-mail the seller and ask for standover,or just how tall he is. Ok if it will fit.

Go to a couple bike shops and get sized. Sit on a couple road bikes and hybrid/MTB's to see what size fits you. Then use this to determine if bikes on CL fit. Also note,REI is having their big sale now(Rockville location about 3 blocks from Twinbrook Metro);most bikes 15% off,and they allow returns.
