question about odometor

hey my mechanic thats fixing my car thinks that my 87 iroc only has 43000 original miles now i think that the odometer rolls over but he was telling my mom that it just stops at 999999.9 so does anyone know if it rolls over just stops?

yeah thats what i said i mean i klnow its possible for the car to have 43k miles on it but i know its not true b/c the tranny was never touched when he restored the car just engine so i don't think the 700r4 would blow after 43k i could see 143k tho

Re: question about odometor

well it could blow at 43k if it was run really hard and abused, like neutral drops etc....
