I think it's a good possibility but most likely a later year model, but the chances of finding one that has 10,000 to 20,000 miles is more likely.
That being said I would rather find one with around 10,000 miles than one with a 1000 miles, the reason being is that automotive mechanics aren't meant to just sit somewhere, they were meant to have their moving parts moving to stay in good condition and get fluids to places it can't get to unless the all parts of the mechanism are moving and fluids changed before the end of their "shelf" or working life, etc.
Any vehicle was meant to be operated and maintenance performed to stay in good condition, a vehicle that has sat for 12 to 18 years with only 1000 miles on it hasn't been operated enough to keep the mechanicals in good condition, seals will be dried out and most likely beyond being reconditioned which is going to shorten it's intended life, on the other hand a vehicle that has 10,000 miles has been operated enough to keep the seals supple and other areas lubricated as they were intended to be to stay in good condition.
