Re: IML: 8 mpg for a '68



My parents '68 LeBaron got around 8 mpg when it started needing a new timing chain around 90,000 miles. I haven't driven my 'vert enough to know anything about the mileage yet. I just got a new starter for it, that is yet to be installed. Until then it ain't goin' anywhere.
