Was able to catch a rare moment on my '65 this evening.

cool. Not often you get to see that....

Well....... not without cheating of course

So how many times has that happened do you reckon? Mine rolled over a few thousand miles before I bought it, but have no idea how many times. Met a guy here who bought his 66 original owner, says he has over 600k on it.

**JPBrecheisen** · 05-13-2017, 12:52 AM

I tend to believe this is the first time for this truck, but there is no telling.

Never seen one do that before, so was kinda neat.

Praxiss454 · 05-13-2017, 01:02 AM

Nice. I have paperwork to show that mine has less than 2000 miles in the past 17 years, so its possible mine has also only rolled over once.

I've seen mine turn over twice, i remember where i was and what i was doing the first time, but don't remember for the second time.
only 35k to go for the third .

2000 miles in 17 years? What's the story behind that one?

Only truck I've put that kind of mileage on is my '88 C2500. That's pretty cool you've gotten that many miles behind the wheel of an old truck.

As far as I can gather, the guy ran into some health problems and then money problems, and the truck sat untouched until I arrived.

Cool! My best odometer story is pulling into the driveway for the first time with a newly acquired vintage vehicle, and having the numbers on the odometer exactly matching the street address of it's new home. Weird!

WOW she's new again...

**Chevy Fleetside** · 05-14-2017, 10:57 PM

Gotta love those moments.

I was going down the freeway and my truck was at the 54,998 and I was waiting for the 55,000 to turn. Well the odometer broke right at 54,999.9, Been that way ever since.
