Default Mecum 68 Biscayne

If anybody is at the mecum auction this weekend in Indy and able to take pics of the black 427 Biscayne, I am looking for some close up pictures of the tailpipes, how and where they exit behind the rear wheelhouse, and their position on the tailpipe hangers. Probably the only original set of L72 tailpipes left. Thanks for any help!

Steve

Wish I had seen this sooner as I am back home now. I inspected this car for the buyer and took a lot of shots. Unfortunately the tail pipes were not one of them! I can put you in touch with the buyer who I am sure would be happy to send you some shots when he receives the car. It was an amazing car to say the least!

I like the selling price. Need to get mine out again on the road. Not many real ones with paperwork out there.

Steve,

Sorry no tailpipe pics.....but here are some from another web site.

Perhaps Brain Henderson has better pictures.

There was a black 68 in NY several years ago in one of the magazines. Not sure where they get how many in what color numbers. Mines got to be one of less than a dozen the way it's equipped though. Not many 427/425 with m22 factory 4.56 gears, F41 suspension and power disc cars that I have seen.

Micky,

Can I get the data from your biscayne for the list. I remember you were going to take pictures the last time you messaged me.
