How many miles on your car?

Explorer: 101k runs like a top!

My wife, 1983 model: had her for 5 years and probably put 200k on her.

Has some issues:

Needs muffler, as it is currently VERY LOUD. Intake valve is stuck in the open position.

Rear end needs major overhaul. A crack there has grown monstrously large.

Needs re-wiring Many wires are currently crossed.

Lots of little dings in the body, which have been covered up with too much paint in a

failed effort at camouflaging them.

Needs re-upholstering Carpet has turned a dingy gray.

Needs front-end work--Headlights are too close to the ground, and fenders are too far apart.

May not pass emissions test, as it currently produces foul clouds of malodorous gases on a regular basis,

Heater works great. Hot air is never in short supply..
