I'll take that bet. How much are you willing to lose? Lawn care/landscaping is big business here on the island. I'll guarantee you none of them drive anywhere close to 150 miles/day. None of them...

Maybe not a rebuild, but likely new seals, which means the engine & trans may have to come out. Not a typical job for a DIYer.

The pace car edition may be worth enough to get it back running, but...
