No, they didn't do it but for a good laugh check out todays latest Iron Trap Garage. They recently bought a 1939 Deluxe Coupe which in addition to the "Mad Scientist" wiring featuring two 6 volt batteries and two generators has a Dual exhaust setup that is hard to believe. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jaHK_Qd-_Q0

I believe that guy had a common problem of way way out overthinking. And his charging system he should have ran an alternator off the drive shaft LOL>> but what a nice car!

That is a nice car. Must’ve been an interesting guy. He did all that stuff without damaging the car. The mechanic Steve put it well, “He did all the wrong things, the right way.”

I love that car. Quite a backstory. I don't always like what they do to the cars, but they are a real asset to the hobby and are saving a lot of cars. I am also inspired by their videos.
