Those green ones probably had you drooling.
I definitely am pleased with 16 mpg. Maybe I could make it a smidge better by really diving into some carb tuning, but it runs so good at the moment that I have no desire to start turning screws and messing up what I already have

That green 64 still has the correct Fawn Metallic interior. Pretty much exactly what I want my truck to look like paint wise. It's going to be a long process, but will definitely be worth it in the end.
