Subject: expected gas mileage?

What kind of gas mileage can I expect for my yet to be delivered partially restored 1972 2002 with basically stock engine (some slight mods to manifold)?
Thanks

somebody else just got reamed today for asking roughly the same question without using the search.

The answer was roughly 15 to 30 or more depending upon driving style.

LOOK DOWN in the forum.

At the top right of the screen, there is a large blue arrow that points to the two search links.

Cheers!

Any idea what my fuel consumption might be in my amazon colored 72 2002 if I drive in reverse? The dash is cracked and the interior is tobacco colored. It is basically stock, except for the triple windshield wipers and the Nardi steering wheel and the 16" wheels and the . . . .

I have a new engine I am breaking in. I just calculated mine to be 24.2 mpg city driving. I have yet to do highway.

Average? Just Average? Average compared to what? Other Amazon colored cars with cracked dashes? Would it be better than average if I added window tinting of H4 lamps?
