When I was a kid my grandfather had them on a 57 Chrysler.

They work.... you parallel park and when you get close to the curb it rubs on the concrete... the sound resonates through the body panels... you'd be surprised just how loud the noise really is.

Another old school cool antiquity item. Thanks for the walk down memory lane.

PS: the way the ones are mounted in the video are pitiful. Mounted correctly they are not that noticeable, quite cool actually.
