That's funny, my '69 and '70 both run out around 1/8 tank, found this out the hard way.

My 68 GTO does the same thing, the 69 G/P hasn't yet but I try not to run it that low......

I had a '67 Tempest 4dr driver that would run out at about an 1/8 tank intermittantly - years later when I parted it out, I found a short section of petrified garden hose in the tank. I guessing it was rolling around in there keeping the float from going all the way down.

The garden hose was obviously a piece that broke off when someone tried to siphon gas out of it at some point in it's life.
