Pretty much everyone had long hair in that era...I was somewhat limited to hair length due to sports etc., but definitely longer as per the era..
Dual Exhaust
Now that this car has passed its yearly safety inspection.
Its time to saws-all the stock single exhaust out of it.
We pulled the Y pipe out, dreaming of making an H pipe out of it for dual type exhaust but retaining stock exhaust manifolds for now.
First Idea - traditional H pipe shape.

Added a flange and spent some time burning sanding papers up , upon this rusty twisted piece of pipe.
The bubble gum and popcorn flux wire welds should be sufficient to keep from us from asphyxiation.
A coat of VHT high temp Aluminum header paint to make it more presentable.
Ready to go back in car tomorrow.
All the pretty blue burned off the new exhaust doughnuts already. There a reusable item right? LOL
That little dent is the time honored clearance-ing technique for exhaust. Its all close but clears.

Interesting.......Also curious how it works out towards trans.
I would probably went plan"a" for simplicity sake...but will be interesting to see how this works out.

would of, should of, could of, just not that smart.
.Also curious how it works out towards trans.
The "X" pipe still bolts to the trans mount as per stock. Engine, trans , and x pipe can still be pulled as one unit from car.
x pipe gets me to the trans yoke already.
We've been collecting pieces for a while, and shopping the close outs and sales.
The plan looks like this...
But it is so long that it don't fit in the picture or under the car.
Everything must shrink
Been collecting pieces parts for a year.
We pay alot for shipping out here.
Fart can muffler was 41$ total to my doorstep ~ cute and stainless with acceptable tail pipe look.
3 chamber flow master knock off was less than 50$ too.
Over axle were 22$ each and cheap kine stainless.
You get the idea, budget budget, budget, and SS if possible.
Gonna have to hear the end result!
A wise man here on Stang Net once said "Build the engine and the exhaust note will work itself out."
This is more for noise to annoy the neighbors than horesey power.
I swear to god....If there is one more reference to some car in this thread about building a driveway, I’m gonna turn this thread around and close it......FOR GOOD! 
(Those who are keeping up with a certain other build thread on the site will get the joke.)
