<VV> odometer reading

[frankcb at aol.com]

	Reminds me of the time when I took our 81 Reliant wagon through the state inspection.  Those days that included a complete mechanical inspection as well as emission inspection (now NJ has only an emission inspection).  After the completion of the inspection, the technician commented to me that "No wonder it's in such good shape, it only has 83,000 miles on it.  "Somehow" I failed to tell him that it actually had  183,000 miles!!!!
	Thanks for reminding me.

The best way I know is to look at the gas, brake and accelerator pedals.  If
they are really worn or recently replaced, the car probably has 134,000.  If
they show a slight wear, it's probably 34,00.

Does anyone know of a way to validate the odometer reading on an early
model? I have a 64 that shows 34000 miles, and would like to learn if it is
true mileage or is actually 134,000. Is there a way to tell if the odometer
has gone around or is actual?
