If you didnt rape on it all the time...

somewhere between 14 and 17 highway and 10-13 city.

I would guess somewhere in there...

i really dont mean for this to be offensive, but who cares. if its a muscle car. and its not like there a ton of 69 stangs out there as a daily driver, i think that a old car like that would be stupid to have as a daily driver...jmo tho

How would it be stupid?

It would be unique. He wouldnt be driving a civic like everyone and thier neighbors cat. Driving an older stang would be the chit.:devil:

I don't think Ford intended the 69 mustang to have good gas mileage. I wouldn't really worry about it, because the truth might hurt lol.

no dought it would be unique, but they dont handle like a new car, and dont have as many luxuries, but if it was worked so it handls like a race car and through in a few nice things, i would drive it daily...

up in the northeast you cant even drive them on the roads until they clean them from all of the salt and sand. so you only get to drive them for about 6 month out of the year, and plus i would really only drive one to school sometimes and down to the beach. i got my blazer to beat on

Not to be rude, but if you aren't going to be using it for a daily driver, why worry about gas mileage? I'm just wondering.
