Ive got 80K had 70K when I bought it. It looks like 200K cause the tool before me didnt take care of it. It runs like brand new because I finally fixed all the mechanical problems he caused.

Im gonna repaint it myself around february so then itll look and run liek brand new.

bought my T/A in August and it had 96k on it. It was a higher mileage car than I wanted but it was in better shape that some of the lower mileage cars I looked at. Now the car has 100,1xx on it and it is put away for the winter and getting a new clutch, hot cam, poly trans mount, valve springs, rockers, thinner HG, oil cooler, aluminum driveshaft, custom painted intake and valve covers, EGR and AIR delete, and Headers. I am excited she is going to screem. plus the mods below in the sig.

Congratz on the 200k
