What else ya got?

 

I don't know how old you are, but I know there'll be plenty of people here who know what exhaust cutouts are. Depending on their ages, they might even remember when they came out. :P

 

This 1983 commercial should tell you something about the economy at the time....

$750 price break....

On new 1981 & 1982 models....

 

Had an old BMW with some work done to it in high school. Had cutouts just before the cats. I rigged a little second parking brake lever to pull them open or closed from inside the car.

 

Thanks for the flashback. Hadn't seen the Mexico ones before but loved the "team roping" with the trucks.

 

Old enough, but not as young as some. Yep, I remember them, but not sure when they came out.

I remember watching those commercials when I was younger. I always liked the one where they haul and pull the other trucks up the hill. Maybe that's where my truck disease originated from?

 

I do remember those commercials (not the Mexican ones), although I was in college when the earlier ones aired and wasn't watching much TV. The later ones, though, I do remember. Interesting, how the commercials have changed, but are still so similar.

 

I was a teenager in the late 60's. We would use an old driveshaft tube and weld it in the exhaust and thread the end for a cap.

You could stop and get out the welding gloves, knock the caps off, think you were in hog heaven with your home made, imitation headers.

 

This is the best one I think. Warning for language at the end. I love watching old Ford commercials.
