exhaust: 1976 Early rear valance

notice the muffler opening on the early 1976 318...the rear valance on this little jem is further towards the center of the car...the muffler end pipe is also bent and is another unique feature of the early model car...

compared to...the later styled muffler placement...

and the 6 cyl 323i dual exhaust below...

rear valence and euro sheet metal

I found some rust on the lip/channel that surrounds the trunk where the rubber seal is seated

I'm putting euro-sheetmetal on the rear end of the car...
