Just bought an '87 with 229k on it, seller said the odometer was rolled back when the engine was rebuilt 10-12 years ago so who knows how many miles are on the body. Could be well over 300!

My first motor had over 300000 on it. But I can't say for sure. I unhooked the speedometer for two years while in college. ( trying not to hit that 7-70 protection mark )
