Default GT Exhaust Hanger location

Greetings! I have 1 65 Deluxe Convertible, A-Code engine, have owned it for 40 years, and just bought GT Exhaust kit and wondering if anyone with a real GT could tell me the exact locations of the exhaust hangers under the rear seat .. if you could tell me "x" inches to the left of something and "y" from the top of something I would really appreciate it
Thanks

Hope this helps. It may not be apparent where exactly these photos are. The bolts are on the almost vertical sheet metal in front of where the shocks bolt on.

I believe the request was for the original location, not what the hanger looks like. This is not the first exhaust on my car.

Yeah, but he want's to know where they are [i]supposed]/i] to be, which I take to mean the factory location, not where some generic hangers are screwed to the floor, which may or may not be in the right place.

Anyway . . . the measurements are; 8-1/2 inches to centre of top bolt from frame rail and 3 inches down from horizontal deck.

I was only able to measure a 68 Shelby today- The 66 I was hoping to detail was in the paint booth.

Many thanks for te measurements .. I have been slowed down by the need to get the different brake hose, lines, and block, so I won't br "hanging" for a week or two.
Thanks again
