'86 300 SDL = 349,605
Thanks to the members here my DD SDL is still running strong at almost 350k....Mostly highway miles. Probably will hit 350k in a few days as I run back out to AZ from San Diego. I put about 3 to 4,000 a month on.
Original #14 head I'm trying to protect...newer timing chain, V. Pump, water pump, alternator, etc. Hydraulic lifters starting to leak a tad as they are a little noisy after sitting for a couple of days then smooth out after a mile or two back on the road.
Original paint (no clear coat) still buffs out like “new” & has a few chips and parking lot dings. Interior is in solid condition probably because it is garaged when not traveling. Going with Depo headlights this week as the front headlight doors are crystallized and cracked
Best car I've ever owned and I'm 54. Been in the family since new
