Re: Re: aftermarket exhaust
Didn't you put those on that 1949 Nash when you bought it NEW?
What did you pay for your's and what model did you get?

Re: aftermarket exhaust
Sure just pass the Nash thing up, like it wasn't there.
I'm glad you have an unstanding Wife. If I told mine I want to get a custom exhaust. She would put both of my pairs of jeans in the street.

Re: aftermarket exhaust
I usually just tell my wife that it's starting to get dangerous to drive. That's all she needs to hear and I can spend what I want. Had a tough time selling all the mods as safety-related!

The difference is some catback systen's are stainless steel and other's are aluminum.Some are stock Dia pipe and other's are 2.5 in dia.
If I were to buy a catback system,id go with the GMPP stainless steel exhaust system,it has a nice sound to it and the cost is about 500 bucks.
