I'll be turning 100K soon in my 78. I'm at 98330. It had 41500 actual miles when I bought it 10 years ago. It had sat for almost five years at that point. So roughtly 5600/5700 miles per year since I've had it and most of that what the year or so I used it as a daily driver. Oveall, that's only about 3400 miles per year from it's beginning. I consider that to be fairly low mileage but Arne and Randy are both way, way ahead since their cars are older.

As did mine Arne. The tags were 1983 on a non-op registration. I had to fight with the California DMV to get them to reissue the original blue plates that were on the car. Seems that at times California DMV will automatically assign new plates to a non-op vehicle. I had to come up with an original registration evidencing that the blue plates were attached to the car at some point in time, as believe this or not, the DMV said they had no record of the plates ever being on the car.

So I found a 1983 registration in the pocket on the visor...submited it and 1 and 1/2 years later they reassigned the original plates after five go arounds with them.
