I guess that the timing is such that the motor isn't too sensitive about fuel.
My old 67 Econoline wasn't so happy with the fuel changes. The reason I sold it back in 06 is I couldn't get it run right on blended gas no matter what. I fussed with the points and timing to no end. Replaced all the ignition system, rebuilt the carb and replaced the fuel lines. Nothing helped. When it became hard to find straight gas I'd had enough with messing with it.

Funny how some engines aren't picky about fuel while others are.

Your 67 ran on leaded gas ,lead was removed around 1971 ,the reason it didn't run may have been that after 71 motors got harder valve seats that they needed to deal with unleaded gas, as lead protected them . If you didn't use a lead additive your valves got damaged over time ,hurting compression. If you had pulled the head and had the seats replaced it might still be running.
