General Description EPA Values

Vehicle Type : Gasoline
Curb Weight: 5
EPA City: 15

Description
110,000 miles of rust and iron. I'm rebuilding the carb. May enter this into a demo derby or may Megasquirt it and take my chances. Don't yet know. The Toyota has a seven year warranty so I do need something to work on.
Modifications
As of this time it's stock. I'm still not clear if modifications are legal in this area, even modifications which keep it in emissions specs but vastly improve mileage. Technology was pretty primitive back in 1985.
Planned Modifications
I'll either fish or cut bait. Fish means I'll megasquirt it and make it reasonably efficient. Cut bait means it stars in a demo derby and then goes off to China on a slow boat.
