Exhaust/Muffler Strap?
I noticed today that on my 85 NCHP car there are metal straps that go from the back of the muffler to body. It is bolted right near the hanger. They look just like the hood and trunk straps. Ill try to get a pic. Was this part of the SSP package?

Thanks kapracing. I don't think I have heard mention of them before. I may have heard about the straps and took it for granted it was the ones for the hood and trunk.

total of 8.
2 Hood hinges to firewall. 2 Motor mounts to frame. 2 Rear Deck lid hinges to body 2 Mufflers to body/frame rails. Easy to make your own if broken or missing also.
