The car was built in November 1968. It turned 100,000 miles July 4, 2022.

Dang, someone hasn't been enjoying driving that car much lol. I put 40k on my 66 Belvedere the first year I had it and it still had the poly teen in it!

Congrats! (your idle is set awfully high....)

Congrats! (your idle is set awfully high....)

It's going 17 mph. What makes you think it's idling?

Congratulations.
I turned my 69 Coronet odometer over to 0 in late 1980. Ironic my 69 Coronet purchased in 1979 and my 68 Road Runner purchased in 2016 both had 92k original miles.

That’s cool, have had a few low mile cars that were a lot of fun. just keeping them (mechanically) as they were was pretty easy too. My buddies give me crap about the car I built 11 years ago that has 3200 miles on it now.
They say “you need to get out more”

Congrats! Now, these critters ain't got an expiration date (or mileage) - keep peddling!
(Come to think of it, I have no idea how many miles Fred has - think I'll go look!)
EDIT: 102, 968! I had no idea...

 

[slimt]

Nice. Congrats.

Mines at 66,000. It has a ways to go.

 

[GetX'd]

When I sold my 68 X - owned 48 yrs it had 57k on it. Of course it was stored for quite a long time while I relocated and traveled the country working.

Huh....so it is! (was only using my left eye....)

Congratulations! I set the odo on my 1967 R/T back to "0" when I restored it and put it on the road in 1992. It rolled up 68,000 on Sunday.

My circle of friends has a tradition that when a vehicle turns 100,000, we do backwards donuts in an empty parking lot.
