I didn't even know that these ever existed. I had a late one on my '68
for a few years and it was a very good muffler, but nothing lasts
forever. It was probably the nicest overall muffler I've ever seen made
for our cars.  It used the OE style connections so you didn't lose the
HEs, plus the exhaust exited in the correct location so that the pipes
didn't hit the bodywork AND didn't drag on the ground. The metal was
heavy enough that it lasted a long time. It had the same black crinkle
finish.

Thanks for the warning. I forwarded the message to my work address, so I
could 
view them over our network connection.   ;-)

BTW, nice Blaupunkt w/type 3 faceplate in the background of one of these
shots.
