Exactly what I was thinking as I was reading this thread. I've lost a timing belt on a 7MGTE and the bottom end spun several times without even a single tick from the engine.

IMO, 1800 is overpriced for a supra that has no key, no oil, and locked up wheels. Before I buy it I would go buy some oil and start it up on the spot to find out exactly what that sound is, whether it's top end or bottom end.
