Million Mile Car
 ✖  |
Four years ago FARM SHOW published a story on a "million mile car" owned and driven by Stanley Dvorak of West Point, Neb. (Vol. 23, No. 1). At the time, his 1967 Dodge Monaco had 1,077,000 miles on it. The car had virtually all of its original equipment, including the 383 cu. in. gas engine.
We recently contacted Dvorak and learned that he retired the car in 1999, about a year after our story.
"The car had 1,086,000 miles on it and was still in good running condition. However, shortly after the story in FARM SHOW a woman ran into me in town and smashed into the car's rear quarter panel. Now the car is parked inside a shed about 125 miles away at a friend's implement dealership in Greely, Neb. He starts the car up every so often and drives it around the parking lot just to keep it in operating condition. The car doesn't have insurance or license plates so he never drives it on the road."
Dvorak recently decided to put the car up for sale at an asking price of $7,500.
