I've used these on a couple of our old Volvos:
 During my post-MX check drive today, I noticed I'm within about 150 miles of needing one for the 914. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) May have to see if I can get something like this made. Anybody else getting close? |

Mine's had at least two odometer failures! A receipt from the original owner shows an odometer repair in Feb. '90 (167K) and then I repaired the gears after it stopped at 229K.
Now, there are just a few hundred more miles to go to get to the moon (currently at 236,837). Thanks for telling us about this milestone in time for me to celebrate! And, count me in for one or two of the decals... One of my Vanagons is getting close, too (224K). And it's odometer was broken when I bought it, so who knows how much more it may have. And, my Tercel (245K) has been to the moon, but of course, lots of those make it there (and no broken odometers). Most of my free time seems to go to keeping these vehicles running for their trip back to Earth! |
