Hey !

I been wondering if this is normal. I have shocks, leafsprings but also normal springs behind ?

The car is a '68 Charger (born 318)

That red spring is not factory equipment.  These old Mopars were not built with any kind of coil springs, only torsion bars in front and leaf springs in back.

Is that a flex pipe or multiple small bends?

look closer. That's the crimps from a non-mandrel pipe bender.
Someone musta been thinking with chevy ford trying for some major hook.

Hehe. Okay. It is not a flexpipe. Anyways, the exhaust system is Vortex and it sounds great !
Many other MOPAR drivers said that :)
