My guess is it is an AS/400 and he had a typo. Probably meant 1980s which
would also jive with 30 years ago (AS/400 was introduced in 1988).

Original owner, was working when put into storage 30 years ago.
I wonder what he's actually selling, because it can't be both "1970's
vintage" and an "IBM AS 400". If it's an AS/400 it _must_ be newer than
when
it was supposedly put into storage. Quite an impressive trick.
