Probably about 90 feet. Mostly pushing the chassis around the driveway and side lawn. I did put a lawn chair on it and posed for the picture for my avatar. Does that count as driving?

Happy New Year Bob(and Michelle) I am glad that I was included in those miles!
I witnessed it and still have that little oil spot!

 

Probably around 200. I am happy with that though considering it sat for 4 years and I bought it in late September and had to get it running, driving and stopping.

 

I don't feel so bad now seeing that there are quite a few trucks that logged the same amount of miles as mine did last year. Zero. Mine's a work in progress. Slow progress and sometimes NO progress. With y'alls help my truck will be logging some miles this year!

I'd drive something old everyday if I could. The Model A typically goes out once or twice a week. Saturday morning breakfast with the wife, church on Sunday, maybe a trip to the office if I'm going to be working there all day. My truck can start making some of these trips and a few more as soon as I get it running.

 

Well I got 243.8 miles (56 F100) Each trip getting a little longer. Been too wet and cold for the past few weeks. Only glass installed is the front windshield. I have one vehicle ahead at the paint shop; once that's completed she off to the paint shop for a while.

 

Not sure what this year's mileage is, but 4400 since getting it on the road in june of 2011. Longest trip so far is 180 miles each way to the Early Iron show in Alamosa, CO. Probably go for a ride today.

 

5 miles this morning ..a quiet ride for coffee the streets are clear ,,,all the scares about drunk driving road blocks is working .. the cop's were all at Timmy's ..the start of a good new year Eh!!

 

A little less than I wanted to but still had a great summer probably around 4500 miles, didn't get to do Baloxi due to illness but the trip most memorable was to Doc's,oh yell I think probably around 500 miles on the Little Hummer, Doc,s girls drove the wheels off of that thing.Jeff, you should have parked bobj in the gravel like I did when they stopped by the house on the way back from Truckstock, a great couple in my book.

 

Happy New Year to all.

Only 353 miles since licence put on it 2 weeks ago, thank you for all the great assistance in the build just from reading all the posts on this great site.

Personal licence plate "KOOL 56" arriving in couple of weeks, as first thing everyone says when they first see the truck is "KOOL"

Will load more photos and build info soon as I spending lots of time with family right now, had a bad couple of years of heart health (really slowed down my build) and I want as much family time with wife, kids and grandkids as I can get for both our sakes.

Family is the best part of life, then our trucks, sometimes hard to keep in that order but have always been able to.

Happy New year FTE's,
Put a lot more miles on the Panel in 2011 than 2012, maybe 3000 in 11, and maybe 800 in 2012. Im glad to see last year gone. I had a lot of negative personal stuff to undo and its almost over. I believe 2013 is going to be a breeze compared to the previous, and I'm looking forward to it. I have a 239 Flatty block all cleaned up and all the new innards bought. Never rebuilt a motor,.....but then again I never rebuilt a carb, an entire brake system, rewired a truck, rebuilt a suspension, before I bumped into you guys here. I sure do appreciate this place and will be really hitting you guys hard for help in this new year. Thanks a lot FTE

 

I think 3000-4000 this year.22000 since june of 08.

 

Towed it 200 miles home in pieces, where it came apart in many more pieces. Hopefully it will drive by the end of summer 2013.

About 3500 on my DD 68 Chev C20 (last year's project).

 

Around 2300 on the F3 since buying it in July, 2011.

 

I'd estimate about 1000 miles on my 49 around here locally. I live in the sticks, and just about every "short" drive I take is at least a 30-mile round trip. Garry, my girls REALLY enjoyed driving that Hummer. I want to again thank all of you who drove to my place back in September. I felt very honored that you all did that.

 

Well the 55 logged exactly 10 miles, and all of those were on the trailer the day I bought it and drug it to my friends hangar in a pile.

But I have probably logged 4 to 5 hundred miles chaseing parts for the bucket, Does that count???? hehehe
