The toughest decision to make on the '66 was how to approach the underside of the car.

Although it is tempting to completly restore all the components, the truth is "it's only original once". To that end, I have decided that over the winter I will clean things up best I can by removing all the dirt, grime and surface rust. I intend to preserve items like the paint bands on the drive shaft and inspection marks on the differential.

To date the exhaust system has been replaced by a Gardner long pipe system. While you pay big money for this system, it installs very easily and fits like a glove.
