Re: Exhaust Noise
Check for an exhaust leak, maybe a cracked manifold? I had a header gasket leak and had the same issues you are experiencing, new gasket problem solved. I've noticed what sounds like an exhaust leak at the donut gasket where the manifold connects to the exhaust pipe on one side. I'll check that out...

Exhaust Noise
I'm getting an annoying popping and crackling noise from the exhaust when the car is decelerating with the engine holding it back (4-speed). It's more noticeable at slower speeds vs. expressway speeds. No loud backfires, just popping and crackling. Engine is 302, cast iron headers, dual exhaust with...

Re: Z code '64 Marauder
Yeah, ditch the skirts and it's a good looking ride. I'm not a fan of skirts to start with, but the way it breaks the body molding with a blank space of body color just looks weird in my book. Otherwise, it's pretty sharp.

Re: Cars and Coffee
Spring is finally here! Beautiful day in the upper 70's. Went to Cars and Coffee this morning and another local cruise in this afternoon.
