A few weeks ago someone was wondering about the II's fuel economy. I contacted the EPA and this is what they sent me:



Data for vehicle prior to 1985 is available at:



http://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/download.shtml



For the 1978 Mustang II see the text file below:



http://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/epadata/78guide.txt



U.S. fuel economy regulations did not require manufacturers to test models prior to 1978 so we don’t have any data on the 1974-1977 model year vehicles.



www.fueleconomy.gov



Hope that helps.
