1.It will get good mileage. 2.It will be very slow. Most Hondas and Volvos will blow by you easily. The 2.88 gears,the stock 2 barrell carb, and the restrictive exhaust make it a non-performer. 3. It

Bob (Standard) Reynolds (Knapp), Well, whichever one you are, if not both, my Mk1 gets 18-20 mpg around town with some freeway driving. I'm not too conservative on the loud pedal, either. I mal adjus
