a 1970 5.8L mustang is going to be pretty thirsty, dont buy it w/ the intentions of good gas mileage.


As for Xenons in a 1970, I think that's a good idea. My dad has a '69 and the headlights are so horrible, it would be awesome if someone made a kit for HIDs.

They exist, I can get you some projector based xenon optics, low and high beams. It replaces the whole sealed beam unit and wiring, come in all chrome and even a black verison too.
