These are welded to double wall head Pipes.
Tailpipes are not factory and no tips.
All hangers- clamps are factory.
Note mufflers are dated AFTER build date AND delivery date by a few days.
Henry told me of a new 69 sold near him that had chambered exhaust.
Buyer could not live with the noise so dealer changed it.
Henry offered this as a possibility on "OLE BLUE".
Gerald had passed so no questions could be asked.
Nothing about this in records.
The set aside explanation does not work as car was sold 3 days prior to dates on mufflers.
Mufflers both had outlet pipe issues so are not on car.
Double wall head pipes are still on car and useable.

and more

Love it! Keep it coming!

A ton of great documentation there...

Thanks
 

Great photos. Thanks for sharing. Love all the details.

THANKS TO ALL.

Thread kinda jumped the tracks.
If it is not offending anyone I will add more later.

As you can see Gerald really liked LeMans blue and a paint brush.

Plug wires are repops as are the rad hoses.
Still need 3 more hose clamps and 4 more NOS 1Q69 plug wires.

Throttle return spring is wrong also.
All 5 wheels have same 1 6 9 dates.
1 low beam is changed.
I put a T3 in but date is wrong.

Showed the only worn spot in interior.
Drivers seat top outer shows a trace of wear.

The generous person here had another MERRICK frame for us.
We bought a 69 OHIO plate and it and the second MERRICK frame will be permanent residents on front.

Any particular details desired let us know.
Car is put up now but we can get at it some.

HAPPY NEW YEAR.
