Interesting reuse, combination and addition of leaves to that rear leaf spring   :o

Too easy, brake light switch and murder mounts are a dead giveaway

I figured as much. The generator style horn and V8 mounts were right there.  Ok next time I?ll make it more of a challenge

That's the challenge of creating one of these threads I found. Pictures void of detailed clues means that members can't identify the cars specifically and too many clues or "easy" ones makes it less of a challenge for many. And that is the challenge - everyone has a different amount of experience and knowledge.

Maybe set the game up where each member can only provide one clue they see so that more could participate and the thread last longer to give more an opportunity. Just a thought

Sure your likely looking at these, as I did when I started these, as a learning experience that all can benefit from from beginners to those with a little more exposure. For these members should jump out there and add a clue and even if it's based on a misunderstanding - others will learn. The one post and detail only would help hold back some of us from spoiling the surprise too soon and the poster can do a final reveal once a time limit is reached. Sort of an layers of an onion sort of thing.

Have two challenging cars I've been waiting to offer up and have been looking for a time and place.

Don't think these exercises are off from the forums core focus so going to move this one over to the General area where I posted the earlier ones

Also a dual exhaust car.


Guess your looking at the pictures that were added and the tie  down. It may have been a recycled tie down that was returned to the car plant. Since we don't know when the car was completed (VIN) we don't know if when the car was built there were any drivetrain options with dual exhaust available at that time
