[Jim's rare 80]

Hi. No offence people, but in my opinion, the best way to tell the milage on a car is not from the wear on the brake pedal. Not all drivers push on the center of the pedal, and keys get worn out more in your pocket, than they do in a car. The best way to tell is the suspension components. Have your machanic check these: Bushings. Front and rear. 30000 miles on a 71, will show cracking for age. 130000 miles will show cracking, and wear. No cracking or wear, they've been replaced because of wear. Also, ball joints. 30000 miles will have original riveted upper ball joints. 130000 miles will have aftermarket "bolt" in ball joints, or will be showing eccessive wear. phantomlake1, Seeing as you paid around $5000 for a 71 you can drive, I don't think you have too much of an issue, unless you are replacing worn out suspension. I just thought I'd put in my $0.02 for others. Best of luck with your ride. Jim.
