Someone was talking about their TR-250 and how they thought it had the original redlines from 1968. Not that I'm doubting the writer about his car or anything, but don't ya'll think 28,000 miles is a

Yes....but there are quite a few cars out there with minimal mileage. I sold a TR6 last year w/ 33k original. There is one in downstate IL with only 17k on it (original owner). I sold a '66 Buick fo

One thing to check is the brake and clutch pedals. A car with 130K will show substantial wear on the rubber pads (if original) where a 30K car will show only a little. Carpet/mat wear, and shifter kn

On things to look at to figure out true mileage: When I fiirst got my TR6, I pulled all the axles and replaced the U-joints because of many clunks. In the process I saw where the POs had worn out U-j

My father owns a 1955 Chevrolet Bel Air with 18,000 original miles! The car was bought from the original owner in 1992 - the quintessential "Little Old Lady From Pasadena." Low mileage cars do exist

The usual advice is look at the rubber on the pedals and the carpeting in the driver's footwell. 2000+ hours at the wheel wears the rubber through, 500 hours much less so. Steering wheel and seat le

Now that I have a good controversy going, I guess it is time to give everybody the story I got when I bought the now infamous 250 with 28,068 miles on the title and the odometer. The car hit our the

On the other hand, you can look at the new rubber pedal pads and new stock type front floor mats on my TR3. If you can purchase aftermarket parts you can fake milage. I had a great uncle into faking

Hi List, I have read with interest the recent thread on sussing mileage of some LBC's. I think this is a valid/important issue for many of us considering the age of most LBC's. Many of these cars hav
