Letting The "Old Girl" Go

The owner of a 1991 Chevrolet Silverado that's traveled more than 1 million miles is parting with what he affectionately calls his "old girl."

Frank Oresnik said his pickup with 1.03 million miles goes on sale on eBay on Thursday night. The minimum bid is $30,000 and the auction continues for 10 days.

The 58-year-old northern Wisconsin man says he wants his pickup to go to someone who can display it because it is so unique.

He hopes it sells for more than $100,000. (!?!)

He says the truck has had four radiators, three gas tanks and five transmissions but the engine is still original.
