Re: Meet Loretta - Bagged 71 LWB -FINALLY got one!

Wow- Thanks for the compliments! I'm happy to continue to improve what Ryan started. I'll get interior shots posted- still getting the holes drilled for the seats and then carpet down.
I got rejected at the emissions test last week because of the exhaust dumping right in front of the rear axle. Exhaust shop didn't want to cut it up- and neither did I - (1), it's not in the budget right now to redo my exhaust how I want it and
(2), it's beautiful 2.5 inch welded Magnaflow exhaust off of long tube headers. I ended up fabbing up some cheaters out of some flex 2.5 inch with some clamps ..hehe...looked so purty coming out right behind the rear wheels- I had the bags dropped so they didn't even give it a second look. Passed!!! I'll unclamp the ghetto setup and save them for the next test!
