It was nice but lacked the exhaust note and solid clunk of door closing that I noticed in the 73 models. Always wanted to drive a 73 though
It's funny you say that.... The past couple shows I've been to people have commented that they like the sound of my exhaust. A couple people have asked what kind of mufflers I've put on it. Granted, it's still the 35 year old original pipe and muffler but my CDV has more of a rumble than any other early 70's Caddy's I have been around. I'm kicking around the idea of dumping the single pipe this spring and going with true duals. With only 51,000 do I really want to change anything??
