Our '66  convertible 110 power glide only get's between 12-14 miles to the 
gallon, runs pretty good. this is what I have done.....
We drive her about half and half city/ highway....
I have replaced the points with a patronix, new coil,  cleaned the plugs and

gaped them at 35, replaced the plug wires, installed a electric fuel pump,
set 
the times (a few times)  Any ideas?........Thank You in advance, Joe
