Default Hit 100k today...

On the way home from work today I hit 100k. My car is now a centurion. Sort of, anyway... Didn't change the speedo for a while after installing the 4.10 gear. But that's what it says, so that's what it is. Been good so far though, and I don't plan on stopping any time soon!

Unfortunately I had to leave the DD back in Illinois, and I only have the ol' camaro to drive. Luckily my commute is pretty short. She certainly has been feeling old lately, not performance wise really, just feels that way... 9 years old now. Plus the nose got scratched up from the stupid car trailer that was in no way designed for a low car. Or any car for that matter.

Ive got no idea how many miles are on my car - The only thing thats got more than 20,000 miles on it are the T-tops- Odemeter reads 24,000

Doesnt matter to me anyway, its never gonna be for sale so what does milage matter.

I never fixed the odometer since my 4:10's. I hit 100K on Sunday and it's still running good. It's time for an overhaul with a cam and head package. Koo Koo
