I have heard twice in my lifetime,(Iam very near 50) once in southeast Missouri where I grew up (in about 1970) and once here in the panhandle of texas (recently) that in the 50's hot rodders would string a piece of piano wire tightly across the end of their talpipe on a straight exhaust car and when ya let off the gas from high rpm the resonation would break plate glass windows.
Any truth to this???
Thanks for your input!
