Lookingfor an exhaust system for my 1953 Chevy 3800. Tried Waldron's antique exhaust,very expensive ($270) and then they wanted $100 to ship. Any suggestions?

your nearest muffler shop might work

$270 doesn't seem that expensive to me. Last exhaust system I bought cost about $1,000. Have you looked at a Jeg's catalog? You may be able to make one of their kits work for you.

It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble...

That does sound reasonable.
Take it to a local exhaust shop for an estimate, I expect it's more.

That might sound high. I suspect you couldn't make it or have a muffler shop make it for $370. Now if you were just looking for straight pipes and a glasspac... that would come cheap.
