We hear of Toyota’s going 300,000k+… Is there some kind of world record for a normal stock car’s max miles?

my dad had an old pontiac bonneville (it was an '88 i believe) that was shit brown. we called it the log. he had that thing at somewhere around 330,000 miles when it was trashed. nowhere near a record, but impressive for an 80's Gm product nonetheless :P :P :P
