In the summer of 67 I was working in a gas station a little south of 
Cleveland, OH.  I-77 ended and turned back into US 21, just south of the 
Ohio Turnpike.  Had a Canadian come in with a Pontiac w/Chevy engine needing 
some exhaust work...had us scratching our heads for a while.  Not sure what 
worked, I think a Chevy pipe.
