mpg and waisting wallets 120-130

On Jul-Dec 2003 with my B18A-2 engine (one Stromberg carb, just after engine rebuild): 26-28 mpg, usually on streets (80%, 10-40 mph, 1st-2nd-3d gear) and on the so-called-only-highway here (20%, 40-50 mph, 3d gear), 4th gear used only very ocassionaly (max legal speed here aprox 60 mph = 100 kph).

A 1958 Autocar road test report indicate 26 mpg (B18A-1 engine, one carb Zenith V36).
