The odometer read 3260, if memory serves, when I got my '56 in 1972. I'm guessing that it was on it's third or fourth trip around,
judging by what it did for a living. It delivered APO mail in Maryland and Virginia. After I got it, I drove it all over the country. I remember rolling the odometer three times myself, at least. That took two used, replacement 235s, several transmissions, and a rear end, plus lots of other stuff. I think I drove it through 40+ of the lower 48, plus Canada and Mexico. I think it's
got over 700,000 miles on it conservatively!
