'67 Rear Bumper Guards with Dual Exhaust?

(1/6) > >>

drummingrocks:
I have a '67 coupe that came with the painted rear bumper guards.  Prior to me buying the car, someone removed the bumper guards but left the brackets behind the valence, then replaced the rear valence with one with cutouts for factory dual exhaust.  Did Ford offer this configuration as an option (exhaust tip cutouts on the valence, plus bumper guards), or were the rear bumper guards only available with the single exhaust rear valence?

67gtasanjose:
All 67 Mustangs came with chromed front and painted rear bumperette guards. (68's were an option, depending on build date).

Bossbill:
If your 67 is a street driver all is well. You can configure it as you wish.

According to a number of sources (including those here http://www.concoursmustang.com/forum/index.php?topic=9102.15) only S-codes and K-codes got factory dual exhaust (with the valance cut-outs).

Look at any 67 GT350 to see a factory install of valance and rear bumperettes.

It is a bit more restrictive - an S-code non GT had dual exhaust with turn down tips, not the valence cut-out quad bright tips.

Since you mentioned restriction (acknowledge turn down is hardly any as mentioned) the transverse muffler AKA gas tank heater is the most restrictive aspect and is on all duel exhaust 67's. Everything else is just a footnote in comparison of restrictions .
