It only got six mpg around the DC area and I had to use Hess 100+ octane gas because it had a 10.5:1 compression ratio. It had no A/C or power steering. It was made to go. That same model (not my own car) was chosen as the pace car in the Indianapolis 500 that year. Wish I had kept it.... I miss driving it to this day.
Sweet ride! Did it have aluminum heads?
