I plan on putting lot of miles on her no matter the repair bills. The car to me is beyond any doller value. Its a shared on going project that I share with my father. Hopefully I can share with my children someday.

I like it when I park the car and the last 3 numbers say 944 then I have to drive it somewhere and return and the last 3 say 951

It's not only the motors that last. The bodies on these cars are timeless, and rarely rust (unless hit, of course)! That's why it's easy to keep them so long--they don't look like 15-year old dogs!

I'm at 102...just shy of 103 right now. Really wasn't happy when it rolled...but what are you gonna do

My February 1983 944 has 89,056 miles which equals 4,264 miles/year.
I think she must have been a garage queen for a large portion of her life.
Of course we only drive cars like this from mid April to October, up here in the Great White North. Cold and salt.
