Nah, I'm not exaggerating anything. That bike is already over 40 years old and shows signs of significant damage. It would take an experienced person close inspection to determine it's good. Plus, if that fork crown does indeed have a propensity to fail, then this bike is simply unsafe. And even if it isn't, the seller obviously doesn't know or care, and a potential buyer will be just as in the dark. Sell it honestly and disclose the OBVIOUS front-end damage. This type of damage is a well-known frame/fork destroying event. The ad should clearly state this. It doesn't, so it's defective and the seller is derelict.
