I have toys too, and fe is still a factor but it isn't at the top of the list by any means.

I just tune em up as nice as I can, run bigger tires "overinflated", and use good driving technique. I suppose if it needs work and parts anyway that the usual mods can be done but I wouldn't mod a nice original if it doesn't rack up many miles anyway.

I get about 20 with the Bel Air that way; 30 with the Corvair.
