If the car could talk I bet it would have lots of great stories. Wonder how long it will take to get to 200,000?

Hi G,
Nice milestone to pass!

Good Luck!

Alan - I've only put about 1,000 miles on it since I bought it in June last year. I've been playing around doing small projects more than driving it. I have more time now and the weather is cooling off so I plan to start driving it a lot more.
Thanks
Griff

you are the proud owner of a 00000 corvette just like the dealer ones. Pretty cool wish I had the chance to rollover an odometer I remember my uncle fell asleep and his in law was driving his chevy truck to vegas and counted down the miles to hit 200,000 and my uncle was pretty pissed he missed it.

Time to do a full body off rotisserie resto, followed by a really fun ebay listing.

Congrats on the turnover! Would have loved to be the one to turn over the first few miles on the '69 right off the show room floor. As of now, the enjoyment of turning over every future mile is just as awesome.
