Caprice countdown to 300k

[Fast_Ed]

Awesome!! Of course, if you miss doing the donuts at 300k, you'll have to drive it another 100k! Good news!

What, no comments on losing 30 psi of oil pressure over 200 miles?

[Fast_Ed]

What's "oil.... Pressure?"

Also, I assume the earlier pictures were taken at 5000rpm.

Taken from almost the top of the Newport bridge. Bam.

Nice work!

Just for you, I noticed that the odo aligned itself only a few tenths of a mile over 300k.

You know what's kind of messed up? I think this car has been in the 200k club for like 10 years. Now that I'm in the 300k club, I have possibly renewed motivation in continuing to drive and maintain the car. Weird.

It is a fairly exclusive club so I can understand that.

[Fast_Ed]

Excellent. I will donate the rest of my can of POR 15 to the effort.

And several wirebrushes.
