Thanks Monzta, yes it was the Bitter, not the Blitzen, close, but no seegar.
You mention the Senator chassis like there was a difference. I thought the Monza ran on a Senator chassis. Am I wrong? Is the Monza on a shorter platform?

Yes, the Monza is a little shorter than the Senator. The Bitter SC, although a coupe also has a boot so it was decided to use the Senator as its basis. The Bitter Owners Club had an exhaust company make up four stainless steel systems for member's cars. They told the company to use the Senator as a guide but they used the Monza thinking it was the same. The BOC refused to take the exhausts so I grabbed one on the cheap when I heard about it.
