1973 Ford LTD Rear View at the Josefuv Dul Car Show, Liberecky kraj, Bohemia(CZ), 2015

1973 Ford LTD Rear View at the Josefuv Dul Car Show, Liberecky kraj, Bohemia(CZ), 2015
Here's the promised rear view of the 1973 Ford LTD, showing the dual exhausts. As I've said elsewhere, I'm more than 90% certain these are aftermarket, firstly because they're stainless steel (a great idea, but not one that Ford had adopted in 1973), and secondly becuse their tips protrude to a degree that OEM Ford exhausts generally didn't. Still, they did improve the sound of the Ford, to be sure. The Tatra 603 seen out of frame on the left also had a similar mod, with similar results, although the exhausts were much less visible. There is a big difference between the needs of a 2.5L V-8 and a V-8 that's 5.0L (the smallest possible engine that this LTD could have had), so the Tatra's exhausts were so small that they're hard to see in my photos. In hindsight, I should have taken photos from much closer, but I didn't think of it at the time.
