Mileage question/opinion

[texasmike]

Hey guys. I recently started wondering if the mileage (52,400 when I took possession on 6/18) was correct or should it have a 1 in front of it. As a fleet truck for the company I was employed with for 27 years, it has had multiple drivers for 21 years before it was parked for lack of interest (old truck and the radio didn't work).
I have been indirectly associated with this C10 since '92, when I joined the firm. I know that the drive train is original and nothing has been replaced or any major repairs made. The truck was gifted to me at the end of 2018 when I retired and this is what I know: the LE9 with R4 and 2.73 gears runs and accelerates very well and feels like it has ample power. It does not smoke and the oil pressure is 32psi at a warm idle. The temperature never rises above 195º and average cylinder compression is 184psi with no. 1 at 175 (only low one). The speedometer has always worked and it has always had P225/75 R15 tires. Take a look at the picture and let me know your opinion. It looks pretty worn to me and that's what got me wondering. Thanks

Of course the picture I was referring to was the one of the brake pedal. It took me 2-1/2 years and lot of $ to get it looking the way is does parked next to the company sign. The picture in my personal description, was taken about 1986 and is the same truck. Notice the tool box and two way radio antenna on top of the cab.
