See my sig for mileage. That is what the broken speedometer/odometer that originally came with my car read. There is no telling how long ago it broke, or how many miles it has seen prior to my ownership while still running the broken odometer. When I disassembled it, a technician had written his name, the dealership, and the date and mileage that the speedometer had been replaced with a new MB unit, proving that even in 1982 the car had driven enough to earn a mileage badge. This car was pretty much driven non-stop for the first half of its life!
Until recently I had written the engine off completely due to low compression on one cylinder. Turns out a pre-chamber was leaking compression. It's still tired, but compression is just under mid 350's across the board.
The car looked like crap when I got it. Chrome was scoured completely off of front bumper and grille surround in several places from the driving it has seen.
