Re: Oldest Car- Lowest Mileage Who's got what??
 
My '73 Maco had 14,080 (legit) miles on it when I bought it. I put 1,000 miles on it the first month that I owned it, just by driving it around town... 15,600 on it now.

Hey did you see that 67 Elky thats been for sale on Rt.9 in Manahawkin? What happened to it? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

That thing seems to make an appearance every so often. The blue Comet has moved as well; I don't know if you saw that one.
BTW: I drove by the auto repair shop where you said there's a Judge in the back of the lot. I couldn't see anything; did you actually walk behind the shop or something? I don't want to get shot or have my a$$ chewed off by some rabid dog.

The car your talking about is a Mercury Cilante, its near the West Creek liquor store on the other side of rt.9. I walked behind the place on Bay Ave, lots of neat stuff back there. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gif

How about the ProTeam "Entombed" 1954 Corvette.
It was bought new,driven 2331 miles and then parked inside a Hardware store where the owner had bricks & morter walled up around it and it sat for a few decades.It was supposed to be unearthed in 2000,but they had to renovate the building,so the Corvette was prematurely removed and parked in the living room belonging to the daughter of the deceased,until it went to auction.

We can't forget about the 77 Vega Wagon with only 13 miles on the clock. It sold back in April of this year.

I'll take some of it this weekend..its suppose to be nice here friday and saturday.. Pretty cool car, Stripe Delete, radio delete, steel wheels, black bubble, its a late may car so having a factory black bubble is kinda rare. Its got papers, copy of original title etc..Galen has seen the car, its beleived to be the lowest mile Hemi Cuda out there. Ive actually been pondering with the idea of taking it to Barrett this year but I heard there sold out now..curious to see what it would bring.

How did it come about to having such low mileage? How long have you had it?

Re: Oldest Car- Lowest Mileage Who's got what??
 
I saw a 3,000 original mile, fully documented, original owner, 1970 LS-6 Chevelle yesterday, Raced real hard back in the day and has been sitting for 30 years. If you didnt know the mileage you would swear it had about 200,000 on her, racing really sucks the life out of them. Original motor is on a stand with a big hole in her where she sucked up a valve.

Tough crowd, some beautiful cars and low miles. Mine is not quite so low 20K 70 Z28 bought from original owner all documented miles, He put on about 5K the first year then a little less every year after. Had sat for over 20 year when I discovered it a year ago. Car had not been touched, hard to believe but the owner wasn't a car guy and knew very little about the car so never messed with it (thank God!!) All original down to the tires and the M22 4:10 deluxe cloth interior. Best part it was 20 miles from my home!!

Re: Oldest Car- Lowest Mileage Who's got what??
 
One of our customer's stopped in on Friday. He still has the '69 Camaro SS 396-375 that he bought new. Car has just over 7000 original miles on it. Two things have been replaced on it - the original tires he said lasted 3000 miles and the engine. He blew-up the original engine and when he went back to the selling dealer for warranty he was declined https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif. He said "we'll see about that!". He called a friend in GM and had a replacement 427 (said he could have a 427 for the same cost as a 396) at the dealership the next morning https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif. I'm to be the first call when he goes to sell https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif.

Almost forgot. Another customer that was in last week said his dad is working on a '49 Chevy convertible with only 500 miles on it. That works out to an average of .112 mile a year https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gif

CRazy story...no way to confirm or figure out...car was parked in 68...drivetrain gone...new shift parts from Chevrolet to convert 4 speed to 3 on tree...1962 235 6 cyl put in its place but doesn't look to ever have run with this engine..409 emblems look to have been broken off with a screwdriver and the holes filled with plumbers putty and a dab of paint ! The original lacquer is polishing up nice...strange car...wish it could talk. Believe buildsheet ,if there was one and likely there was...probably tossed when they installed plastic..gas tank has 3 inches of varnish....it has sat untouched for 38 years or so...don't want to restore it just clean it up...working with Verne Frantz to document stuff...the firewall has a book written in crayon !
