I got my first classic at the end of 2009 and told myself if I don't "use it...I'm going to lose it"

Just went past 1200 miles for 2010...love cruising around in her and she gets to stay in the family.

How many miles did you guys put on yours (daily drivers don't count)?

don71

Limited miles this year...at about 300. Its new interior is looking nice.

Oh..and the new posi works purty' good too.

I have no doubt it'll get more miles next year.

Aceshigh

Around 1500 or so. If I lived down south it would be 3x that.

2011 will probably be less at the rate gas prices continue to increase over the winter when
they should be going down. I fear we're heading back to $4-$5 a gallon again now that the
blood hungry leeches and speculators have gotten a taste of the profits. Supply isn't the
excuse anymore......now they're just going to use the USD value as the scapegoat because
it is declining steadily, while they claim the economy is rebounding.....

All my plans for 2011's modifications are on hold til I see where Spring 2011 prices are at.

About 600 miles, a low year for me, was laid off until mid June, and worked overtime frequently once back.

Run to Rund

About 24 1/4 mile passes means about 24 miles total. Then, there was about 8000 miles towing it to shows and races. That comes to about 333 miles towed for each quarter mile pass. Since I went through some rain, I'd say I got about an inch of rain per 1000 miles too, mostly in MA, NY, KY, OK. That's more rain than the car got in its first 40 years.

OLD SKL 69

I put about 1,000 miles on the Olds this year, which is a lot considering it only traveled 42k before that. I drove my 63 Riv about 2,000 miles as well.

MN71W30

We've put 10k on our 65 Biscayne in 3 years and 6k on our W30 in 2 years.

bil

Only about 2000-I was out west a lot and the car was east.It is all I drive most of the time. ---bil

I use my 1967 four door as a daily driver. But I live within about 3 miles of everywhere I go in a normal week. So in the year and a half that I've owned the car I've put on about 5,000 miles.

oldzy

A big fat zero. Maybe in 5 years or so I can put a few on

navvet

I had hoped for @ 1,000 miles after doing a very indepth tuneup but it was laid up while I fought with a bad fuel pump. Did about 400 miles, mostly to local car shows and around the lake a few dozen times ( keeps the wife happy) I am planning a weekend trip this comming summer for a veterans get together could be @ 1500 round trip miles....FINGERS CROSSED

young olds

almost 1000 i only drove it 3 months out of the year, unfortionatly.

citcapp

About 4K on the 57, more this coming year with the trip to Reno

Tedd Thompson

Put almost 3,500 on it this year. That was mostly because we used it for two trips that were almost 1,200 miles each, plus a lot of car shows that were out of our area.We hope to do the same next year if we can afford the gas. Now that I'm retired I have a lot more time than money. We live about 25 miles from anything so a trip to town amounts to a 75, 80 mile trip. It adds up quick.....Tedd

ddx77

About 30 miles then I went a little crazy detailing her and now she is in my gargage in a bunch of pieces. But making progress...

Probably be done by the time the heat and humidity starts back up down here in South Florida.

hotrodj54

about 1300 this year on my 56...............................john

Willidog

Unfortunately I put exactly zero on mine in 2010. A friend put a few on it for me though.

bulldog

Less then 50 miles. Just don't drive it much.

Aron Nance

Guesstimates:
1968 Cutlass S convertible "Big Red" (Juju's car) - 400
1968 Cutlass Flat Top Wagon *Silver Bullet (mine) - 2000
1992 Custom Cruiser "CCRider" (mine) - 8,000 (4400 roundtrip to Sturbridge)
1998 Ford Escort S/W (mine) daily driver - 12, 000
1009 Jeep Grand Cheorkee (Juju's daily driver) - 12, 000

71supreme

no miles. Feet would be more accurate. I put about 250 feet on my olds this past year, moving it in and out of the garage before pulling the top end off. As long as all goes well with the top end rebuild, I'll be able to measure next years movement in miles.

Lady72nRob71

Lady got about 2200. My '86 is fixing to get about 250 today. So far it got 0, so i need to burn the year old gas and refill! It will be 70 today and I need to make a liquor run to east TX anyway.

D Appeldorn

drove about 900 miles,

like to drive my olds, and needed to brake in my new rebuild 455

what a punishment

BIGJERR

4 passes down the strip..............So a little over 1 mile,Lost oil pressure had family affairs to attend to etc etc..............The new short block has been ready for over 2 years and I got the Eldebrocks ported and set to go this year,So 2011 the Olds monster should be back under full power!

76 Regency

Put just over 1,900 on the burgundy 98 and probably about 25 on the black one...just mostly to the upholstery shop and gas station....very local stuff while I'm still finishing her up. Next year she'll get into the hundreds range for sure as she'll be done soon. Cannot wait !

henryk8398

About 2000 miles. I don't drive much in general. Plan to drive the 98 a lot more after the new headliner and vinyl top go in!

Nilsson

4000 miles here, I just can't help myself.

w-30dreamin

Just under 3k miles

I never checked my mileage but Ill guess 10 mpg

Todays price = about $900 in gas just joy riding my Olds and loved every mile

Heres the view as I smile ear to ear from driving my Olds

76 Regency

I haven't checked my MPG since last year's big road trip to NC but we maxed out at 17.25 in the burgundy 98. I'm hoping our next big trip in April will be even better since I'll have a brand new dual exhaust and NO CAT! I'd love to hit 20mpg but I'll be happy with 18-19.

1971 442 convert

About 4000 miles the Nationals were a long trip but it was a blast.

skryla

About 6 miles on the Chevelle
About 2500 on the Olds - planning on putting on A LOT MORE in 2011 with the new 496/M22Z

lshlsh2

About 2000 on the convertible. Now in the garage in pieces hope to have back together in spring(new fenders and etc.)

snowballs442

I put about 500 miles on the cars this year. Insurance company said that most wrecks occur within about 3¼ to 5 miles of your home...so I moved.

lweinmunson

I put about 7000 on my 70 Cutlass S this year. It looks like a rolling POS, but it's too much fun to drive. Maybe this winter I can find a new fender and hood and get everything painted and bolted down. Then it won't sound like a bad drum set going over bumps.

nonhog

Less than 100? Drove it downtown a few times for Friday night cruise in's.
To dinner, burnout video. Not enough.
The 425 seems really tired, not sure how much I trust it.
455 is at the machine shop still. Hoping to have it together and rolling this summer but have my doubts.

76 Regency

OK, now that is funny! LOL

71 Cutlass

7,000 baby! Everyday driver. Put 100 thousand on it over the past 12 years.

Col Wickham

2,695 since 18th March when I registered it. 2,690 of those with the top down.

oldsca

500 km. Most of it trying to find a good shop to paint the Olds.
Wayne

WTony

Just over 400 miles on the W-convertible and about 3000 on the wagon.
Making some changes to the wagon to make it a better economy ride. The 10mpg on the highway, 7mpg around town is just ridiculous!

coltsneckbob

Wow, I thought I was driving mine too little, but I see most of you are in the same ballpark mileage wise. I put on about 700 in 2010.
