Re: fuel efficiency
I get about 13MPG, with a one time best of 15. If fuel economy is a big concern, buy an econobox and THEN your Toronado. I think you will find that my numbers are more common than those getting 20MPG. Having to rely on a 45 year old vehicle to get you to work every day can be very frustrating.

Re: Hello be a german new member
Welcome!
I´ve admired your Toronado´s restoration site for years and I can not wait to see it finished.

Re: Another disk brake thread
If I use all of the '76 Eldorado suspension, can I retain the Eldo axleshafts... Will they bolt to my '66 TH425 diff? Since '66 axleshafts are hard to find, this might be a good thing to switch to. Thanks.

Another disk brake thread
There is mid 70's Eldorado at my local junkyard. I'm tempted to graft the front and rear brakes into my '66 Toro. I have read Mark Pruett's write up and it is pretty clear that the old drum brake wheels do not fit over the stock calipers. I am wondering, how bad is the interference? Also, any point ...
