Or, you can take the challenge I did: a 1971 CHRYSLER Newport purchased twenty years ago. Make it so that it got good gas mileage, but could still pull a 7k trailer. Came close on all, and well surpassed stock fuel economy before a forced sale (health).

Or not.

In short, buy the one that'll rev your engine in thinking about and wanting to work on it. However old it is, expect to re-wire it first. OEM harnesses.
