Yes ,but since the traction bars are backwards ,it would be hard reverse launches . Hsrd to see in the pic ,but the exhaust is like a stinger for a dune buggy . Really funny thing was how many people ...kids ,stopped to look at it haha Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Some peoples children..." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vicfreg 771 Report post Posted April 16, 2018 I think he jacked up the car so the rear mudflaps can clear the leaf springs...... Actually, that is a pretty nice car otherwise. It is a 1967 "Sport Sprint" model. I has the flip down gas cap, and bright trim on the rockers and the wheel wells, and in-hood turn signals. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It makes me think of a 16-year old with daddy's car and a J.C. Whitney catalog in 1971 ... "I want chrome mud flaps, chrome exhaust tips, traction bars, Gabriel Hijackers, and definitely that 'Mega-Tune K-2000 45-Degree Ultra Bent Radio Antenna', LOL Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vicfreg 771 Report post Posted April 17, 2018 Oh yeah...airshocks. I had the Gabriel Hi Jackers on my early Mustangs. In those days, for some reason, we thought it was cool to paint the rear end housing white, or silver. Then bolt on some Lakewood traction bars, and a set of chrome reverse rims with trim rings....and you were ready to plug in the 8 Track and blast your favorite tunes...maybe BTO "Not Fragile", or Deep Purple "Machine Head"..... I had a Craig "Power Play" 8 Track.... It had a locking side plate so you could hide it in the trunk.... those were the days... 2 mwye0627 and 69RavenConv reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
