Somethings the site does that I don't agree
I just cannot conceive any of you could believe a 340 car could come from a manufacture with no right side exhaust hanger .
And worse that during the restoration they forgot it, Welded up the holes and decided it just didn't need one. and do it so perfect under the car its not noticable.
Numbers can be removed and welded into a body with no problem. Hiding that hanger removal would be difficult and for what reason
This Demon came here for a front clip. We put the original numbers into the top rad support. Not the whole top piece either. We cut them out neatly and tig welded them in far enough away from the numbers. once the weld was smoothed with a small flap wheel and the car was painted you couldn't tell . They were the original numbers . We could have just replace the whole top cross piece but then you would be able to see the replacement by removing the original spot welds.
Putting numbers on a body if you have the original doner is a breeze. Forgetting the original exhaust hanger would be easy to do also. And once the donor is gone back then your screwed because they didn't sell that hanger separately at the dealer. Many non dual exhaust cars that come here with duals the hanger has no bracket and bolts right to the floor. They are not performance bodies.
