We're having that problem too. Check that the exhaust pipe is solidly 
mounted. Some <ahem> person installed one of those rubber hangers for 
the intermediate exhaust pipe mount. The pipe wiggled, compressed the 
donut, which then leaked. I picked up all the correct pieces and am 
installing it next. I'll post how that holds up.

As for cars working, fat chance. Ours is awaiting some loving attention 
from me, or my son to finish connecting the engine to the rest of the car.

We also had one very odd failure. Both rebound straps failed. We 
installed them a couple years ago, but they weren't up to the task of 
restraining the rear axle for the few months we had the car up on jack 
stands. Have new ones in there now, and the rear end is sitting on jack 
stands under the axle instead of the body.
