More Happenings

We took the car to get the exhaust done on Thursday. This picture was taken at the exhaust shop I believe before they did it. Mike and his dad had already put the H pipe on prior to it going to the exhaust shop. Turns out we had the wrong output on the mufflers but the shop just swapped us straight across.
 The rear valance is not on the car, but you can see the two exhaust tips sticking out. I love the way they point down and with the valance on, they are perfect. I didn't want the exhaust tips to be really noticeable so I am very pleased with how they turned out.
 The fenders also came back. The car looks great with the fenders on. Although the driver side fender is back off the car and back with Gary. There was a spot that needed to be fixed with the paint.
 Mike put the lettering on the fenders. Now there is no mistaking what kind of car this is. The running horse emblem we had to order a new one because the kit we had was messed up and had one emblem for '67 and one for '68. Which the pegs are bigger on the '68 and the peg on the tail of the horse is placed different. So soon we should get the correct emblem and get it on.
 These pictures are out of order, but Mike had put the cardboard divider that goes behind the rear seat. He also put a metal divider as well just for safety measures. It didn't come with the metal one, only cardboard but seeing as the gas tank is in the back, it is safer having some sort of non flammable barrier between the interior and the trunk.
 This is looking at the cardboard divider from the trunk.
 Today Mike is working on the carpet. I will have more pictures of the carpet on a later post.
