What's the highest milage You've seen?

What's the highest milage some of you have seen on a 240 with all origional non-rebuilt engine-trans? I am buying an 89 for $200, it has 205k, auto tran. All miles put on by female exchange student from Vietnam. Origional owner, small dent on driver's side qtr panel. All records since new, oil changed every 3k and tran fluid changed every 30k. Looks new inside!

Highest milage?!?

i've seen a guy that had an 89 with 351k miles on it.. stock, original motor... he was selling a car on ebay.. pretty crazy.

btw, good find.. you could put another grand or less into it and have a newer engine, and 5spd tranny.

I plan on rebuilding a ka24de using a the internals of the 89 sohc. I have been told by a few guys at Abel Racing in OKC about a combo involving such. I would like to find out more but lost contact with them.

351k!!!! That's great!

Mine leaks oil too. I share your pain. And you MIGHT be barking up the right tree about the seal.
