Default How Many Miles U Drive the ssp a Year?

I have to give an annual report to my insurance company
(collector car policy) and it looks like i have driven the
ssp/chp car 41 miles since last year at this time.
some i have only driven a mile and others not at all
I do start everything once a month to get the oil thru
the system. but some i don't have time to drive (at this time)
S0 the question is how many miles do you drive your ssp a Year?
(trailer is not driving)

No idea - my speedometer is still broken (the needle is stuck at 140mph too!). But I do drive my unmarked car (with the lights disconnected and covered) as much as possible.

If any out of the area trips occur usually 1-2 thousand in a year.

I drove it less the last two years due to work. Had to drive a truck for work. So, less than 1000 miles. Before the truck, over 1000 miles. Never had to change the oil due to mileage, but time instead. And of course I park it in the winter. So only get to drive it April/May through October.

I have not driven a mustang in a year and a half and I have 7 .
It's starting to eat at me! They are all in different stages of progress. I truely enjoy driving my Texas car so I plan to freshen it up and give my truck a rest.
I really struggle whether or not to drive the SSP cars. There are so many people who have no respect for them and I would hate to have mine compromised by some disposable vehicle like they produce nowadays. Tough call for me.

I guessimate about 2000 to 2500 miles for all the SSP's I have pending on how many out of state shows I go to.

We made several long distance shows this year so I would say close to 3000 miles.
