    Thanks, it is really loud and obnoxious kinda like its owner.... it has 2 1/2 inch rams horns and 2 1/2 inch pipe back to the mufflers that are 14" long Porter steel packs. with 2 1/4 inch tailpipes. The Porter muffler co was only about a mile from here and was run by a buddy of mine Clark Babler. When the Porter mufflers were first designed they were packed with metal shavings from a lathe. Sometime in the 90's they switched from using shavings to using stainless steel wool. Being the diehard old stick in the mud kinda guy that hates change that I am, I asked Clark if I could get mufflers made the old way and he replied. "If you want em packed with shavings, you have to bring your own and pack them yourself" . So, that is what I did. for this car, The 40 and my Impala

  20. I have no idea what year this one is, hopefully it fits in the theme of this thread. This is the only picture Ive ever seen of this car. Im curious to know more about it if anyone has anything they can share. Personally I like it, but Im sure its not everyone's cup of tea. e25f04a1ab638527fe8df9ce3a6f94d1.jpg
     
  21. Looks like it started as a 63-67. I have seen that car before but know nothing specific about it.

    Sure not much of the original left. I like it, though.
