CRWLR 05-21-2004 06:45 PM

Re: "Original Miles"
 
One may not need to do an rebuild, but one would be wise to take the
eventual need into account. My '81 that I bought in '98 and had 70k on the
odometer (that only has 5 digits) now has just over 100k (maybe 200k, or
300k - it's impossible to tell) is getting ready for a rebuild.

I will be doing my rebuild on my Jeep when the time comes, but I have
several other cars to choose from so I can afford to take my time. I will
not do the rebuild on my BMW because I need the car back on the road sooner
than I can get it there myself.

The mileage becomes less and less a reliable indicator of condition with the
passage of time. Even a car that has very low miles can have serious
problems that are rooted in the fact the car has been parked for so long.
And a car with many miles in not necessarily ready for the scrap pile just
because it is old. There are just too many factors to consider to point to
the mileage and say, "well, that one sucks or that one is good." That's all
I was saying.

Re: "Original Miles"
 
One may not need to do an rebuild, but one would be wise to take the
eventual need into account. My '81 that I bought in '98 and had 70k on the
odometer (that only has 5 digits) now has just over 100k (maybe 200k, or
300k - it's impossible to tell) is getting ready for a rebuild.

I will be doing my rebuild on my Jeep when the time comes, but I have
several other cars to choose from so I can afford to take my time. I will
not do the rebuild on my BMW because I need the car back on the road sooner
than I can get it there myself.

The mileage becomes less and less a reliable indicator of condition with the
passage of time. Even a car that has very low miles can have serious
problems that are rooted in the fact the car has been parked for so long.
And a car with many miles in not necessarily ready for the scrap pile just
because it is old. There are just too many factors to consider to point to
the mileage and say, "well, that one sucks or that one is good." That's all
I was saying.
