The POS SDL had severe odo tampering, but no indication that the whole cluster was changed from original. Just got rolled back over 100k ALL, Of course this is not new to the world of used cars. In 1969, I bought a used 65 Olds 98 from a Dodge dealer, with just over 50,000 on the odometer. It was less than 5 years old and that mileage seemed plausible, given the condition of the car. Turned out it was a salesman's car and spent a lot of time on the highway. It spun a rod bearing on my first trip and I spent most of my vacation overhauling the engine. I later found documentation that this car had reached 83,000 TWO years earlier. The fact is, after the overhaul, this BECAME a great road car with the export 375 HP engine and the first of the switch-pitch torque converters in front of a great turbo 400 transmission. Buyer beware, 'nuff said!
