Looks awesome, it`s in a nice color and those are real nice wheels.
Reminds me of a 76 F250 I had. I found out after it was sold that it had a 390 GT engine, it would really fly for a big old 4X4!
It had some blue bottles for mufflers and dual exhaust, it was sweet, fast and loud!
I ended up selling when buying our house for this farm.

be better off going straight pipe. not much difference in sound, and you'd save a few bucks.

Never fails every time I see a highboy, I mutter "Some day."

baah. just don't step on it when the party lights are in sight. unless you're goofing off, which we know you wouldn't do , they probably won't bother you much. harley's are waaaaaayyyyyy louder.

Cops like to pick on younger drivers, best play it cool or pay tickets.

Mufflers and an exhaust system in good working order are manditory, just don`t ask how some Harleys get away without mufflers.....
