what do you think

I sat on the floor in my road runner today dreaming about how frickin nice it would be to burn some rubber when i seen the odom read 18000 mile now i know chances of that are slim but I do know for a fact that i am the third owner and i know that the car back in 72 was a repo from the first owner after about six months of having it and the guy i bought it off i knew pretty well but hes dead now so i cant ask he never drove the car it sat in the back yard in the same spot i pulled it from there probably isnt anyway of telling if those are the actual miles after 15 years i just noticed title dont say anything and i do have paper work on the car being a repo

There is a good posibilty that the second onwer was a little old lady that just took it to church and the local food store and that was it.

it is more likely that the odometor went around once, but like Tim said, the little old lady might not have driven it

Im going to see if maybe i can find the original owner if the person is still alive body wise the car looks like 18000 but motor looks like 118000 ill see what i can find it may take me a while but i have the original owners name from back in the day
18000 would make that car worth allot more later after restoration 118000 not so much but documentation is a must

over time, gaskets leak, fluids drip and leak, rust builds up. if the car is exposed to the weather and moisture, this will make it look worse faster.
