Let your favorite brand oil co know about your car maybe there$ an opportunity.
Donating a car thats been good to you that long just nuts
When youre done with it $ell it

New thought but someone had mentioned part of it before. When you hit 400K I would contact all the Hot Rod mags, et al and show them what you have done. Financially it might help you PLUS give you some notoriety. They used to have a commercial on TV about an old Mercedes (I believe) and the old man would say a million miles and still running. I can't emphasize enough the notoriety and possibly some endorsements especially from the oil company. Just a thought but hang in there and good luck!

I have 161,000 on my 89 ...Now I can honestly tell any prospective buyer that these cars will go 359,000 miles and still run great..I have completely rebuilt my whole car "top to bottom",so maybe now mine will make it that many miles...
.This is proof of what I have always said, " That it's better to drive these cars, then to put them in a garage and let them sit".....WWAs long as you garage keep her...your good to go. Glad to hear someone is having fun driving not pu??y footing around town. Too many Jay Leno wanna be...
Need to start three new threads ... 100,000 mile and up. 200,000 mile and up . 300,000 mile and up .
When I get home from work...taking my baby out for a spin.
