Above: GrowingBolder.com did a video report about Rachel Veitch back in 2007, when the car only had 540,000 miles on the odometer.
National Public Radio—93-year-old Rachel Veitch has pampered her beloved 1964 Mercury Comet Caliente, a car she calls “The Chariot,” for nearly five decades and 567,000 miles.
The “misty yellow” Chariot, which cost just under $3,300, still has her original engine. The air conditioner’s also original. Chariot has outlasted the “lifetime guarantees” on three sets of shocks, eight mufflers and 18 batteries.
