FYI: At just 30 mph, this car probably burns more than 50% of its fuel just to overcome aero drag. Most people overestimate the speed at which aero becomes a significant factor. See:

Congrats on the find, paintme205...
A priority should be fuel consumption instrumentation - you'll need an MPGuino since this car is pre-OBD-II.
That plus driving techniques (since you're primarily in town) will be where you'll find your easiest, quickest & most cost-effective gains.
