One more thing concerning using leaded gasoline...  Don't do it
if your vehicle has one of those infernal "black boxes" under the
hood monitoring and controlling the combustion process.  The lead
in the gasoline will foul several of the many sensors used by
the computer, and you'll end up replacing them to get your vehicle
running smoothly and/or predictably again!  I don't think the 
particular vehicle in question (1977 model) is recent enough to
fall into this category.  (My 1976 Camaro doesn't have one of these
computers).
