Re: most miles on a square body

Just to show the world that "Squares" don't die, we drove ours on the Hot Rod Power Tour, this last year. We did 3000 miles round trip (Kansas to Newton, Iowa to Mobile, Alabama with the trip back to Kansas) and the truck made it with only one small failure and I repaired it on the road.

Have over $14,000 invested, but it's worth every penny to me. You can't buy dependability like this anymore. Alternators go, starters go, carbs crap out from time to time and other stuff just wears out, but for my money I'll take an old square any day of the week. jim
