I almost think I recall some of those ads!

By the way, if the forecast is accurate we're going to have to do a CP "distance" gathering in a park somewhere in the next week or two...

We all wanted the Thrush stickers when we were younger (those, and STP).

I kept bugging my Dad to buy a Thrush muffler at Crappy Tire, so I could get the stickers (I don't know what he would have done with the mufflerbiggrin).

 Glass packs sounded much better but were illegal here in the 70s. Also Thrush mufflers were dirt cheap at Canadian Tire back then.

I remember a friend back in high school had a 302 powered Mustang II and had a pair of them mounted at the back of the car. They sounded terrible, especially when cold!

Anybody remember the header mufflers that basically were glass-packs right from the collector flange, then dumps from there? They were LOUD!

You want to know the actual product name? Purple Hornies! No joke, they usually were found on mid-70's vans around where I was. The 70's...

 Yes they do, especially when downhill backpressure blows them apart at the seams.
