The Ford Barn - View Single Post - can't access passenger rear exhaust manifold bolt

I can get a 9/16" box end wrench on the last bolt, altho it is tight. maybe with a shorty wrench would be easier.

I didn't try it but it looks like I could get a socket with a universal joint on it. Remember this is on a '55.

Darrel is correct, that bolt does not need to come all the way out in order to remove the manifold.
