    I am trying to decide weather or not to go with Lakepipes on my '50 Ford. Would like to see pics of some to get an idea. Also thought of going with Bellflower tips but have never seen anyone use them on a '49-'51 Ford before. Anyone have pics of this? Let's see. Thanks!

    As a fellow shoeboxer ('49), I say lakes... here's a couple pics I've collected to keep reminding me what direction mine should be pointing...
