1988 Chevrolet Caprice Classic in Baltimore, Maryland ID-6313
New short-block, not rebuilt, installed March 2015 -- new GM 350 CID engine (now has less than 6,800 miles), new gasoline tank both costing some $5,200; also, $10,700 paint and R&R of all rust w/ new roof, new floor, new roof, and new windshield; new starter (March 2015). 116,000 odometer miles (new dealer installed valves at 35,000 miles, under warranted). I'd received it in 1990 from my dad, at some 35K miles -- purchased new by him in 1988.
To explain the relatively low mileage, a.) I have been retired since 1998; b.) Since November, 1990 and until retiring in 1998 I'd commuted by bicycle three to four days each week (unless there was snow) for a total of some 20,000+ miles on bicycle; c.) On long trips, mostly annual vacations, I rent a car to use.
Also, by far, trips during the years had been highway miles, due to proximity of my home location.
July 7, 2016 I'd changed the oil a second time making it a total of two oil changes into the new engine prior to the new engine reaching 5,000. During September 2016, I'd replaced the exhaust system and bought a new battery. During November 2016 I'd paid some $800 to remove and replace all additional rust on front passenger door.
Current total miles on car is less than 117,000.
