Oh, it has a timing belt, but when it breaks, the valves don't bend. The effect of mileage depends on how it was driven. I ususally keep mine under 60 MPH, and it seems very durable. If the compression is off, you have an extremely easy ring and valve job to do. The real test of value is the front suspension mounts, which are expensive if rusty.
