Default 89 year old woman drives her 43 yr old Comet car 540,000 miles with same engine.

Ford motor company could get some real "mileage" in advertising from this gal.

This video is awesome. You'll appreciate a few things this lady does and says.
This is a GREAT story.

ENJOY !

That's pretty cool. I like how she agrees that elderly people shouldn't have licenses renewed for long periods of time. I'd say she's definitely gotten her money's worth out of that car!

The Comet is a much better looking car.

I saw this story last year that somebody sent me. The video has gotten some mileage. It is an incredible story but already getting a little old.

Someone in this here will have a story about them in 43 years just like this one!

Several years back some "little old lady" was buried in Corvair. They drained all the fluids (from the car) put her in it and put it in the ground.
