About the gas mileage. I've had the same 67 GTS 4 speed 3.23 read end since it was 1.5 years old. When it was bone stock at 55 mph I would be 18 MPG and 12mpg around town.
That is nice to know that I wont go completely broke paying for gas lol. But still thats not bad at all for a big V8
But really havent gotten much done over the last month. Things were kind of crazy with Christmas parties and Christmas shopping. But oh well, got some stuff done when I got a little extra time. I got the Lower and upper control arms painted, as well as the lower ball joints. Then right before Christmas I got the Front disc brake shields, struts, and steering center link painted. Within the next two months I hope to get the piece for the torsion bar mount made and welded in, get the rest of the bushings for the front suspension and steering, Then hopefully get the front end on the ground and the back end raised up to paint, bush the rear end and see what needs done with the rear axle. I am hoping to get the car stripped and painted this summer/fall and get the engine tore down and hopefully rebuilt and in next winter. So we will see how that goes!
