Thank You! it is a lot of miles but adds up quickly at a 1200 miles per week pace!
A good friend of mine had his '94 GT to 390,000 or so, I didn't think I'd see that beat. Something about that year which refuses to die. Nice job on using the car. thumbsup.gif

my wife and I have had 2 1994's and one 95 vert. both all of them were above 250,000 when they were totaled by deer except this one. I have hit two deer with it but still alive.

Brazil about an hour SW of indy. I commute to the east side of indy everyday.

I would post pics but the car is nothing to look at, all beat up from deer, also hit on drivers side by a blind woman, backed into on passenger side, ductape and 1 of the 17" wheels doesn't match from a pothole. she's a little rough to look at and almost 1/2 million miles driving starting on a rural gravel country road and passing through the city everyday has taken its toll......but underneath shes in near perfect mechanical shape and all of the a/c and electric stuff still works even the power mirrors haha

I am interested in this story. Was the blind woman driving? Did she hit it with her walking stick? Did she walk into the car?
