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.   ;-)
