My car has now has 268K on the body, with about 15k on the drive train since rebuild in 2002.  Definitely not a daily driver, with only 15k in 5 years.  I usually try to get it out once a week to keep the bugs out of it.  Future plans are now to eventually put #5 or #6 350 heads for compression, and at that point, put a better tranny in to handle the power.
