mileage on your car

-
The speedo on our '67 Valiant with 170ci Slant 6 is currently showing 69240 Km (the photo was taken for the insurance renewal in October). I do know it has rolled over once as I witnessed it as a child in the late 70's, so this is actually 169240 Km (105183 Miles).

The engine has never been rebuilt. It runs fine and doesn't burn oil...

162,000 on the 273 in my wagon, never opened with the exception of the performer intake/carb I installed to replace the leaking stromberg. It really needs a timing chain, valvestem seals, and a gasket kit....the 904 has some morning sickness as well.

The dart is showing just over 100,000 but the original 225 had a giant hole in the side/top of the block where rods #4-5 introduced themselves when I got it.

The neon has somewhere around 180,000 on it and only NEEDED a headgasket at 165,000....I wound up doing an in-frame with DOHC pistons and a 49,000 mile Magnum head and oil pump off the same 'parts' engine.
 
My 225 had 230k on it when I rebuilt it last year. Up until then, the car had received only a couple carb rebuilds, a j/y radiator, tie rod ends, and very infrequent oil changes. I've put about 12k on it since rebuilding.
 
I now have 62.870 since I last posted on this thread 8)

I'm afraid I don't know. It's either 170,000 or it's 270,000 it could even be 370,000 miles. I would guess, judging by the condition of the car, 170,000. She's on her second slant, a '66 date coded block, still runs strong and I don't have to add any oil in between changes. Soon, she'll be on her second rear end as the mtching #'s 7.25 pegleg is disintagrating. The tranny is also matching #'s, it doesn't shift quite like it should, but a service would help alot. Someday the tranny will be rebuilt or replaced all together, either with a 4-speed o.d. or a T-5.
 
I have 35283 on mine. im not sure if it is 135,283 or 35,283 though. the way the original interior looks i would say 35,283 but Im not sure.
 
82,312-none in the last two years. Hopefully that will change this year.

My Duster has 124,000 on the body and 21,560 on the rebuilt engine. Transmission has approx 165 miles since installed new last summer.
 
buddy of mine has an '83 D100 SWB 2wd all original except for the carb and distributer when we did away with the electric BS. Its got 328k

my cummins has 336k the only thing that aint stock is the water pump, universal, oil and filter
 
My 67dart sl6 has 63,000mi. It had 39,000mi in 1992 when I got her. I am ashamed to say that i only put 600 miles on it since 2006. That is going to change this spring. It's been restored once, it can be restored again.
 
140k on my 225 68 dart, spun a bearing in the fall, engine has been bored, decked, crank done, all new parts, waiting on head to come back, and I start rebuilding in time for spring !!
