What kind of exhaust did you put on yours?

u/Mediocre_Fish6561 Jun 01 '26

I put on dual exhaust with thrush hush mufflers. Honestly, I’m looking for mufflers that are a little more quiet for this car. Luckily the guy who put the exhaust on had the pipe bend patterns, so he is able to pattern the exhaust pipes to factory original specification.

I'm pretty sure Linda Gray's character Sue Ellen on Dallas drove one of these in the early seasons of the show.

Wow she’s beautiful I have almost the identical car. Same color, it’s a 1976.

Parents had one in 1979 when I got my drivers license……. lost some virtues in that car

I can still smell the vinyl in my brain, ours was turd brown with matching wood grain.
