<VV> Re: 50,000 miles

Not this one.. Grandpa bought it new...lived 30 miles from Flagstaff , AZ. 
and only went further when the Son took a position in the Needles, Ca. city.
It was turned over to the grandaughter when he stopped driving and was 
promptly sold to me...via Vic Howard / Vegas Vairs Prez......dark green and 
black interior with no AC...does not work in Needles!! gg

The O-rings were original?  some had disintegrated..all others were rock 
hard...  trans case is dry......engine lowerside was the only oily area...

When my painter jacked the car up on one side.. a pool of oil ensued!
