Hey.....you made me look. About 6k. 3 days 'till it's/my 1 yr. anniversary. Not bad for a weekend/evening warrior. Don't use it for work. It's been a very good car so far.

I'd have to guess about 10,000 miles this year, even with her being in the shop for 4 months due to being rear ended. :chevy

I just put her away this evening and happened to check. I put 1457 on her this year. That's about 100 more than last year.

I've had her for 3 years now. The first year only got about 300 miles as it was late in the year whe I picked her up and I had some things to fix.

Looks like I am the leader with 21K per year. And that is for each of the 4 years I have owned my 82!

Just under 6,000 on my '75....all in the sun with the top down :cheers:

I've only had the FRC a couple of weeks and put on 1,500 but 1,300 of that was bringing her home from New Jersey. That was fun too!! :D

With all the travelling to various NCRS shows, cruise-ins and just plain "driving", probably a total of about 18,000 on all four of them, the '80 probably about 11,000mi alone on it. :yesnod:

The black 68 received about 1,100 mls this summer,

the blue 77 receive zero miles, but I guess 25 meters on the hoist - up and down, up and down, up and down....... :D :D :D :D :D

Frame off should be complete for the next season.....

Mine went a little under 4k, more then I would have thought but we had such a mild fall I had lots of sunny days to take it out.
