    They don't look like they hang too low at all. Nice looking car! Thanks for posting it. On a side note, where was the picture taken? I've seen pictures of more than a couple cars on this site taken in front of those pumps.

    This picture, as well as the others you ask about, were taken in Knightstown, Indiana during the Maverick Comet Club International (MCCI) Roundup Nationals the 4 years it was held in nearby New Castle, Indiana. We were at the Texaco Museum in Knightstown, IN....that has since closed and gone out of business. :(

    It really is. All the gas pumps are gone, the inside is empty. It was really a guy's personal collection, and he didn't really have any "open hours" or even an admission price.

    This thread started 14 years ago and you're the first person to open it in 5 years, but not to worry. 6208 Hooker Super Competion Headers are still available in plain or Ceramic Coated configurations. They are for 351 c.i. Ford engines. Type " 6208 headers" in the search function at the top right of this page and you can get lots of info. Google Summit Racing. They sell them.

    :cheers:

    lol.. good salesman, you make me want to buy Hooker headers for an engine I don't even have.

    Well, that.. and look for simple question excuses to dig up old threads. Kinda makes you nostalgic. :D
