Yes....but there are quite a few cars out
there with minimal mileage. I sold a TR6 last year w/ 33k original. There
is one in downstate IL with only 17k on it (original owner). I
sold a '66 Buick for a friend last week...it only had 34k on it....

EVERYTHING would be worn out by 130k if it were all original equipment!!!
Pedal pads are a fave indicator of mileage for me.
