That pic of the down turned tail pipes is perfection.

That's interesting, I see the "drive shaft loop" you have there, my car has two of them, I will take a pic of mine soon to show. Also ,I noticed the double side indicator lenses in the front fenders, I haven't ever seen that before, is that a mod?

drive shaft loops...have nada....that oem?

The one he has looks identical to mine so I am inclined to believe that maybe yes? I have been wondering myself.

I've been restoring cars and building hotrods as a career since 2002 and have plenty of work with no end in sight. I used to have a big shop with 6 employees and after 10 years of driving myself crazy going behind everyone's else's work I decided enough was enough. An oil field company wanted my property and shop so I sold everything, closed the shop and now I make a better Living with less stress working on just 2 cars at a time at my house.

 

[detmatt]

I love working by myself.

Once upon a time, guys like you would take on an apprentise and try and pass on to a clueless, but curious kid the craft of creating things with your hands.
Effen kids would quit after 3 days now.

 

[detmatt]

I've got lots of patience and though I've been told I should teach, I have little desire to.

 

[Kenneth DeVries]

You can't get most kids these days to put down their phones long enough to get their hands dirty. My 4 yo daughter works in the shop with me everyday she can barley write her name but if I ask her to get me a certain tool out of my tool box she knows exactly where it's at. My 10 yo son even has his own work shop in our back yard with a stocked tool box. For his birthday he asks for harbor freight gift cards

Both of the 1970 gt he owns has the double driveshaft loops also

Woud be super interesting to examine them closely and see if there is a P/N on them.

My hard top 300 has two front and rear. I've been told that they usually get pitched early on if ther is a need to drop the tranny. The front is out and after scraping all the gunk off I only found one spot with "EM 24".

[Big_John]

My 300 has one in the front.

You have me wondering about the rear now.
