Just wanted to put this up. I usually don't ride with the odometer showing, but when I started out this morning I turned it on for some reason and found I was two miles away from 133,333 miles. Once I hit that mark I pulled over and snapped a quick pic.
I enjoy driving my 95 vert more than any other car in the driveway. After almost 7 years, I still smile when I turn the key. She ain't the purtiest, but she's mine. Thanks for reading.

That's what it's all about.

If you have driven 133,000 miles without a serious or tedious repair then you have a keeper. Love your mic holder for your Bluetooth.

Welllll, I bought her in July of 2011 with 85k on the odometer. She was my daily for three years. After that I put her on jack stands for pretty much a year and worked on her in the driveway, porch and kitchen of my house. I was a bachelor then. I've lowered her, installed new bushings, new shocks, replaced water pump ( twice) radiator , opti , C5 wheels , Master cylinder, brake booster, u joints , ball joints , fuel
Pump , new convertible top, new seat covers , heater core , repaired the LCD in the dash( thank you Batee.com) and a few more things I'm sure I've forgotten. Last on the list, a new coat of paint. It's my tinker toy, as it were, but I smile every single time I turn the key.
