Looking for input as to the quality and fit of the complete exhaust system from Chevys of the 40's. I saw a post on VCCA website that did not sound too positive. Feedback would be appreciated. Thanks, Scott

I got the pipes but not the complete kit. Fit was OK (only slight tweak required). The header pipe bends were tighter and more restrictive-looking than original. Shipping charge was astronomical, so I wouldn't buy them again (to be fair, they did warn me about the shipping price, but I ordered anyway since I had already thrown out the originals).

Do you have the original exhaust pipes that can be copied? I took my 39 to a friends wheel, tire and exhaust shop. He custom bent aluminized exhaust pipes to match my original exhaust. That was six years ago and I don't see any rust on them yet.

No only the head pipe. I have a good shop that can do a nice job, but original? The price would be about the same but it would be easier to just bolt it on if the quality is up to par. Scott
