    Armo's 79 LTD 2dr build.

    After buying my 2dr ltd a fw months back, I have replaced and fix most of the mechanical issues(starter, entire brakes, a/c, cooling system,etc), now its time for the fun stuff. Like dual exhaust, paint, rims, slick top conversion, cd player, etc. So I will be taking pics of my ride as time allows for all the progress I have made of my 2dr LTD build.Heres how she looked when i got her. I will post current pics later.

          Heres a pic of my new dual exhaust conversion. Its true duals from front to back. Has 2.25 pipes w/ knock off cherry bombs and a H-pipe an chrome tips. its got a nice old skool sound. It realy woke up my 302.

            Looks a lot like one that was on eBay a couple months ago. That one was in Michigan, though, somewhere around Washentaw County.

                      you sir are scary. You didnt remove ANYTHING....doesnt even look like you removed the interior trim to access the bolts for the exterior trim. Get a flat head screwdriver. heat it it up and bend it 90* and use that to pry up the opera window trim.
