Rear resonator hanger location on 66

I am putting a spare 2000 exhaust on my 66 1600. The rear resonator has a mounting tab but the 66 doesn’t have the mount. Where does the normal (twin pipe) resonator mount to the car?

Mine has a threaded hole on the front of the rear crossmember. I used a right angle bracket to hold my 2L megaphone.

I have the same setup on my ‘69. The mounting point is 1.5” to the left of the gas tank mounted on the back crossmember.

Thanks! I know the location. There were bolts in those holes. I want to make sure I have the right location

Appreciate the help!

This hanger was mounted in front of the axle on early cars.

67.5 to 70 front hanger for resonator.

The early resonator used a rubber Z block attached to the frame and an L bracket.

I can't recall what the rear resonator mount for the megaphone was.
