Re: New guy with a '66 stepside

It's incredible how clean and straight this truck is. Thanks for the additional photos.

I know Magnaflow makes one.
Thanks Captain...that gives me a good place to start! Was thinking maybe a Magnaflow...

It really is in great shape. A few dents in the passenger bedside fender and slight crease in the drivers door. But for a 46 year old farm truck that got used....it's pretty remarkable.
