Default 79 with side pipes

Just bought a set of street and performance stainless block huggers with collectors and stainless sidepipes with the fiberglass covers. Can't wait to get them cleaned up and put on. The guy I got them from had them on his 76 for about weeks and decided to go with the hooker headers and side pipes.

will do my best to get some pictures on the forum. I just bought the car and so it needs lots of tender loving care. Plan on installing electric fans, a performer intake, rebuilding the quad, and installing the side pipes. Working on the mechanicals then I will start the cosmetics.

:cheers:
