I would STILL rather BUY a 1966-67 Corvette coupe to drive daily with a 327/350 HP engine than have a new car given to me ! Id take the new car and sell it as fast as I could and use it for a real car.. My 73 Corvette with L-82 350 and 400 turbo w/ 3.55 gears, and P275-60 X 15 28 inch tall rear tires used to get 22-23 MPG without a computer, EFI, OR an overdrive transmission and it was air conditioned with PS, PB, PW. All 3550 lbs (with out driver) of it. I could at least change the spark plugs on it with no problem and there was not a metric bolt or nut on it. I have to admit that John Lingenfelter did my Q-Jet back in the day and I installed a Pro-tronics magnetic pick up to eliminate the points and condencer so that probably helped. The carb came off of my SS/IA Camaro and never changed the jets or metering rods.
