lol...my original 1971 250 sedan is still going!

I literally ran into it in a town not far from where I live, at a gas station. Spoke with the owner and he was amazed that I had owned it. It's looking a little rough, but hey, she's got well over 650,000 KMs on the clock. It was running well, but the body was going. I did a full head job on her at around 500,000 and she still has the original tranny. I gave the new owner some advice about setting and cleaning the dual Zenith carbs and a few other quirks. He appreciated it and told me he'd let me know when the car finally gives up.


P.S. I was the 10th owner. He's no.12.
