That is the orignal dual exhaust from 1979. Clamps and all. Keep in mind it was 1979. Only 1800 cars were made with the 400 engine, four speed and true dual exhaust. All the rest had 403's, automatic and a single muffler in the back with a dual outlet. The 400 TA was the fastest muscle car made in 1979, even quicker than the Vette.
Comparing a 1979 collector car to late model Mustang.....
Sorry you do not get it. You are comparing a piece of artwork to a poster. The poster may look very nice but the artwork has the collector value that goes up.

Sweet car...very nice. The question; what does the new owner do........drive it on sunday and take it to shows or add it to your collection and permanently park it? If it were mine I really don't know if I could leave it parked, however it'd be cool as hell to wait another 20 years and see what it'd fetch with 12 miles on the clock.
Hope it goes to a good home.

Mine was also a 79, Black/Sliver Bird with Black Velour, 403olds, T-tops, silver snowflake dished wheels.
Man, did that car get p u s s y! not to mention had long legs on the highway.
If that T/A is still sitting at Volo, I'm going to stop in and see it.
