We were toying with the idea of electrifying the Meteor but it's too heavy and we don't really want to modify it. The only ecomods I would do are sets of moon discs and wheel skirts which would look sweet.

It's been in my honey's family since new.

Interestingly I found a few Popular Mechanics mags from the same year. In a poll of what readers wanted most from Detriot: Top of the list was better fuel economy. Detroit: 50 years of not giving customers what they want. Wait. 80 years? Oh well, NOW they are going to give us better MPG. Right? Right.

I didn't see any duct tape at all, although here at Ecomodders it is a generally well considered thought that any color of duct tape adds profoundly to the significant improvement of your mileage.
Too True. Must be why I have not cracked 40MPG. Next Mod: Duct tape something! Duct tape belly pan?
