Big fat 0 miles this year, as I took the auto box out last November, and put it on the bench, ready for a rebuild/hop up.
Got all the bits and bobs, but not the time, so its still there.
Hopefully get on with it after Christmas.
Lots of other stuff just seams to pop up and get put ahead. :roll: :roll:

Not as many as I’d like. Summer just gone the Cuda was trapped in the garage due to scaffolding and building work, and when Robin climbed up the scaffolding to loosen the clamp and slide the offending pole out of the way the little cow decided to spew petrol everywhere from the carb.
Ungrateful little sod, she was going to the Mopar Nats :(

Probably averaged 700ish per year in 9 years of ownership.Having recently sold my business and dont have to work seven days a week that figure will no doubt rise. :)

Not enough !
A couple of years ago I did a staggering 5 miles - MOT station and back
Last year was 0 due to it being in bits
This year, since passing the MOT I've done about 10 miles
Hopefully put a whole load more on it in 2018 though

less than 1000 a year and just checked the MOT site and have done just over 3000 in 5 years of ownership.

Will try harder, now with Shakey closed have to travel more to shows and races.

We're currently managing about 2750 a year. Although, to be honest, that aught to be a lot more.
I've had quite a bit of lower back trouble over the last couple of years which makes pressing the brakes a bit of a chore (drums all round no servo) if I'm not having a good day. So, really I have to be having a good day AND the weather has to be decent for me to feel like I can get the Dodge out.
Much of the mileage is probably down to my wife nicking it to take to work. She's put far more miles on it than I've managed.

The highlight of ownership has to be the nats every year. I think we put on about 400 miles at that event alone. It's so cool using it as your only car over a weekend. Even better when you look around and the most boring thing you can see is a mustang all weekend!

Let "Mopar Monkey" do the driving!

You can polish and sup a couple of Ales instead!

By and large, that's more or less what happens anyway!

A plan with no drawbacks then, until you buy your NEXT Mopar.

Just the small matter of a house move to organise at some point next year first before that becomes an issue!

Used to avaerge about 3,000 a year but without doing any major events this year and MOT expired, not many. Did start e car up today after a month and that 340 just sounds wonderful. Should inspire me to use it more next season.
