What is the correct description of a 60's Jr. stocker.

Yes,
Going back, very bizarre requirements.
Making the muffler system (attached), part of Stock Class.
How many mufflers and exhaust pipe systems went flying out from under the car. That rule should have been canned for safety purposes alone.
Exhaust pipes, mufflers and tail-pipes should have been optional, not mandatory.
Understanding, if your race car was your daily driver, how easy would it
have been, to un-bolt a set of 'Cherry Bombs' from the headers
(10 minutes 'tops'), and leave them on the ground, and not worry about having some rigged wiring or adjustable hangers dangling from the under-carriage, or worry about the exhaust pipe network or a tail-pipe with an expensive chrome-extension go flying out like some 'boomerang', as you went through the traps.
