66 Bonne -

What manifold is that? How do you keep the paint from burning off there?

Sweet setup.

Jerry-

It is one of those things that is only good after it is long over. State trooper heard me light them up in all 3 gears as he was parked behind a church filling out reports when I rolled by. I guess it took a minute to turn on the radar back in '82. Other uh elements were involved, and surprisingly a ticket for 85 was a relief. Plus, the Trooper's post parental phone call "You did not tell me your father was a lawyer" comment to the passenger and the reply of "You didn't ask". also adds humor though I could have strangled the guy at the time for complicating things by tossing contraband onto the shoulder from a car with a flashing blue light close behind it. None of this ever would have happened in a full-size Pontiac 'cause they have built in stealth - or that is the only explanation I know for not having a repeat in 25 years.
