70's cadillac

[SupraDupra]

are those reliable? they look good, have a 4L+ engine, and they are dirt cheap

[Dr. Disque]

hehe, way more than 4L, more like 400+ Cubic Inches.

They get pretty lousy gas mileage because of the huge ass engines, but they run like a tank as long as you keep them cool.

[BOB]

Just be sure to get one with the 500ci motor. That thing will run until the wheels fall of the car.

[SupraDupra]

how bad is the gas mileage? the gas prices is getting real high here

[Sniper]

maybe 10-12 mpg if you can keep you foot out of it......

they switched to fwd somewhere in there...might want to keep that in mind while you're looking/researching...

10-12? I was thinking more 7-10.

[Dr. Disque]

my friend got 12.5 mpg on a 200 mile highway trip in his '72 Coupe Deville with the 500 cu. in. V8

[Moloko]

Like he said, "keep your foot out of it" and you'll get 12. If you want to make the car actually accel quick, you're looking at 5-8 probably. Also, it might need 93+ octane depending on what year.

[Dr. Disque]

those were all aftermarket
