281,7xx miles and that's on one 2.8 v6. Doesn't burn oil, leak oil or anything else for that matter, but the exhaust is shot and the camshaft has a worn lobe causing noisy lifter. Otherwise it runs great.That's what happens when ya take care of a car folks, I've got service records all the way back to 1986. I had to replace the tranny though

I turned 222,222.2 this fall. Ill check and see where she sits now... All stock T/A. 305 700r untouched, I throw an alt and a starter at it once in a while. My Dad has a 94 1500 305 700r, so pretty much the same vintage, 395,000, burns a little oil on start up...runs like a top.
This is from a couple months back - The engine and trans were supposedly rebuilt at some point, but I have no proof. I've replaced the alternator, A/C compressor, water pump, injectors, and lots of other minor things.
Mine just rolled over for the first time with me. It only reads in the ten thousands. So I did some math... It's 25 years old. If it has an average of 11 thousand miles a year i have just hit 300,000 miles! If it has an average of 16 thousand a year I just kit 400,000! I have put about 40,000 miles on it in about two years so if it went an average of 20,000 miles a year, I just hit the 500,000 mile mark!!!! Still an all original motor and trans with headers and exhaust, but I did replace the rear diff when it gave out! I guess theres no way of knowing for me. Or is there??????

Mine is at 122,xxx of course it was when I bought it. Haven't put a speedo cable in cause it won't be right anyway. I figure it's a good way to keep the resale up.
43,000 for me. Owner bought car and then it sat in driveway for years while he played with his other toys. Car paint is in rough shape and looks like it has over 200,000. Southern paint job I was nervous driving her home since odometer stopped working for a bit. Now my speedo is acting weird so another project for me to fix when it gets warm. Good to see so many nice looking, high mileage thridgens!
Odometer rolled twice that I know of so...at least 200,000 miles. She now has 26,001. The 1 mile is when I had to go to the gas station to fill her up lol with her new engine. I want to drive her already, but gotta wait to pay for dmv paperwork argg.
