Personally, I would roll back my mileage if I am rebuilding my engine ONLY.
If it's to make money? I wouldn't advertise here for sure.
But someone told me that if I want to roll back. I just hook the speedometer
to a drill and let 'er rip. That should set it to 00000 in no time.
But if I was to sell the car...I would give them the original mileage before
the rollback. Considering the car is over 25 years old...can the gouvernment
really tell? Most cars these days barely make it to 100 000 mile which is
not even going around the clock.
I remember the Hyundi Pony being every second car on the road in Montreal.
Now if I see that car, I do a double take. Ahhhh what a classic ;) NOT!

Real neat story from some years back about rolling speedos back here in the
D.C. metro area, one man was very, very big in doing this for most of the
car
delaers or car lots that wanted this service, when the police finally busted
him, he went on national T.V. and said he was making over $300,000 per year
doing this, the IRS was watching T.V. that evening and he got 10 years for
tax
evasion, this is a very true story, I knew him well after my 40+ years in
the
business <g> "FT"
