Many years ago, I had a 77 Chevy Caprice with a 350 and a Turbo 350 trans with no lockup. It got 15 mpg on a good day. It was NOT a lightweight. We put 360k miles on that car. Two engines and maybe 3 or 4 tranny rebuilds. We (wife, two sons and me) went all over the USA towing a StarCraft pop-up camper, or a StarCraft boat carrying a tent, in that car. Many good memories.
Also had a 1978 Malibu 4 dr. 305 and a Turbo 200. Put 200k on that car. That car was the quietest and smoothest car I have ever had.
To get to my point, the Caprice wagon was pretty heavy. What about a Chevy II wagon or is that too lightweight?
