On February 26th, 1999 I took ownership of Freaky with a whopping 666 miles on the odometer. The dealer offer to round the number up, but I said it was just a number.

That is very cool , Fiona wasn't given to me for a birthday present, we had been looking for a while and found her and they bought her but wouldn't tell me anything I think they made everything final and stuff the day or 2 before then waited until the weekend to giver her to me Good Luck in the car show I'm sure Abbie will be great

When are the old timers going to start chiming in? (well, just one so far..)

I got mine in January of 2001 with just 6 miles on the odo, sold it to friends in December of 2007 with about 74,000 on the odo. Currently it takes weekly trips to Washington DC from Central NJ and back on a full tank of diesel. (so I'm informed). I do get to see it from time to time

Sure miss that car..
