The highest in the registry is 225,000 (3701)... but who knows how long ago that was. Im sure SOMEONE has hit 300,000.... just curious if anyone has made a claim to that yet.

My old black car was 198k (or in that range) when I sold it over a year ago. Ran like a champ too!

I bet if it was well taken care of it still runs well. These things were built to run forever. I had a 71 Bronco with a 302 and it had close to 400k when I sold it 20 years ago, my Friend who bought it, still has it and it is still running on the same original motor.

X2. Change the oil and coolant regularly and don't beat on the 302 too hard and it will last a long time. Keeping up with the body is a little tougher, especially if you don't have a garage to put it in.

Depends on where you live too. Here in AZ, the sun can kill a lot of the car, but rust is almost non existent! :drive:

I had a 93 LX 5.0 coupe with 300k miles ran fine but had it rebuilt. Previous owner ran mobile 1.
