64K miles on the motor, still the factory head gaskets (even with all
the abuse I've put her through), finally have to change the rear brake
shoes (still original), and the front brakes went south at 61K miles.
Clutch lasted until 63.5K miles as well.
Only major repair was the transmission (partially my fault)...it was
replaced for free at about 30K miles.

My '97' has 85,000 miles on it and so far I've changed the brakes and
the
battery.
