Really going back here. In 1953 the thing to do was to "Split The Exhaust Manifold and rig up Duals" Well I was in Ag. Class and during a portion of the Class we had shop. I took the Manifold off my 1938 Dodge Six Cyl. to the class and when the Teacher was not looking ,with Acet/Oxy Torch blew a hole in the bottom of the manifold about 1 1/2" Dia. Brazed on a pc. of Exhaust Pipe the size to fit into a Flex Exhaust Pipe. Took it home and put the manifold on the car, got 6' of Galvanized Flex Pipe for the new outlet. Replaced the Muffler with a Pc. of Pipe on the other side and went to Town Cruising.Long story short, got arrested and car impounded. Dad knew the J.P. so I got out of that one,Car went to the Junk Yard I guess,I never saw it again. I think my Dad had something to do with that although he never said and I never asked. If you knew my Dad you know what I mean. Bt this time it was 1954 and I cruised thru life until July 27,1955 when I went to the Marine Corps and that lasted 8 years. No regrets in my life but I still wonder what happened to my "1938 Dodge Sedan"
