I drive the 68 the most then the 73. Probable 4-6K between those 2. The 77 get the least as it's 99% original...maybe 500 miles per yr on the 77

I guess mine is lesser than every one else here. It is just 700-800 mile in a year. I drive less.

Vette(s): 1975 C3 Red, T-Tops, Black Interior. All I need is time and money! Getting there!
My odometer is one of the things that I have not yet fixed.   According to that, nothing.Disapprove
 
According to my best guess  between 400 and 1500 miles depending on the year.
 
DANG, I need to get it out more!Wacko

I'm in the same ballpark as kstyer.  I only put on about 400 to 800 miles per year.

C3 not nearly enough, maybe 500 - 700 locally; C6 goes around 7K+ a year - fun road car. Which one do you figure the wife likes better?
