OK, gang, I'm wondering who's got the oldest living Montero out there in Forumland?

It sure as heck ain't me; my beast left the shores of Japan in September 1994 and sold as a 1995 North American model. So who can top that?

Winner gets forum bragging rights and a genuine Santa Cruz window sticker.

 

You've got me beat. Mine is an 01, though I probably have the lowest miles of the bunch at 74k miles

 

Look at the doorjam sticker for the date of manufacture — yours could have been slapped together in 2000. And yes, my beast has 175,xxx + on the clock lol....so you've definitely got me beat there!

 

I belive I have the oldest running montero. I have own since I was five years old a 91Mitsubishi Montero RS 4x4 Rwd. I have put 300,000 miles orginal motor all stock. I have to say the best car ever it certainly done its job. I hope you guys check out future post called "The Green Machine Project" I will be swapping the motor get a new beffer suspension also upgrade the interior. Keeping the old mean aggressive exterior with the steel fram. With a new clean interior. Chat with you all later.

 

So mine is probably not the oldest one out there, but i do have you beat barely lol. I have a 1991 Montero RS. Door jam says it was made in Oct 1990.

 

Nice ride man, got one very similar 1991 Mitsubishi Montero RS 4x4 stock 3.0L V6 i believe stock axles and dif and the 4 speed auto trans. pretty sure they are not limited slip though. It has been a fun ride, had the engine and the trans rebuilt back in 2004, put 170,000 miles on it since.

 

Ding, ding, ding, I think I move to first place, just bought a one owner 1989 in NC with only 82,600 miles on it. Had it delivered last week. Actually it is a Dodge Raider the two door rebadged version. I have wanted one for awhile just had to find the right one.

 

Actually I have the oldest Montero, a 1987. Bought her from a friend with 275,000 miles 2.6 liter I4 with a 5 speed and not running, but now she runs and i just pull trees with her in my back yard. Hopping to get enough money for an Old Man Emu lift.

 

mine is a 94. at least thats what it says. the vin number says its a 95 tho.

 

Well, I recently bought an 86 2 door. First 4x4 and only the second rig I have truly loved. Proud owner right here!
