155K currently on my 85 (between me, my son, and my grandson, we've put 120K on the clock in 20 years). hope to go at least another 100K, but in retirement, I only seem to put about 3-4K per year on the corvettes. this might take awhile...

92K on my 89, put 10K on it in less than a year of ownership, because I love driving it.

Mine is close to 106,000. Down for maintenance right now though. The heater core decided to leak so I'm in the throws of changing that and the 1989 date coded hoses. I guess 25 years is long enough on the hoses.

BTW I got mine with 99,980 miles so I only had to wait 20 miles to clear 100K.

Around 92k for my LT4.
Not to hijack anything here, but how do you read the date codes on the hoses? Doing some maintenance right now so I have mine off. There is an inked marking and another stamped into the rubber and they are different numbers. Which is the part number and which is the date code. I can't make since of either.

I should take a picture. On my upper radiator hose the date is stamped (date is recessed like it was heat applied) in to the rubber. There is a complete date. Mine says 12-??-1989. I don't remember the day. There is some white ink numbers on it as well. I don't remember the day. I'll try to remember to get a picture tonite after work. My car was a late January 1990 build. I'm still amazed that the hoses lasted this long. The heater core gave up first.

Exactly... love to see these cars still running strong after so many miles. They run better and last longer when they are driven regularly!

I've got 60,000 miles and drive about 6,500 per year. So, she will hit 100k around the year 2021. Many miles and many smiles to go... enjoying the journey getting there!
