I still think of my old 1951 ford with them, and ran them untill they started passing out tickets for the noise. I have been wondering if any one here has installed them on their El Camino and where a person can purchase them. I am seeing a lot of them lately, they must be making a come back.

I have thought about them for some time but without seeing them on an El could not justify them.

The pipes from the headers back are 2-1/2" 304SS with SS Magna Flow mufflers. The welds on the side pipes are pollished so none of the welds are visible and look clean. I have many pictures in the gallery. I'm retiring this fall and plan on making a little egg money making stainless exhaust and or side pipe like I have on Stir Crazy anyone interested, you know how to get in touch. _________________ http://pictures.aol.com/ap/viewHoo.do?type=photoAlbum&size=LS&logoUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fpictures.aol.com&aolAlbumId=aeVRhXusOtJntZh68TD0YpfyXeQeV%2FQSS169B%2FX6ZM2JJdNX5w59hg%3D%3D&noLogo=true&bgcolor=000000 Back to top Frustrated Father Spanner Necoa #: 12183 Location: 7(AL,GA,TN) Joined: Jul 26, 2008 Posts: 8 Year: 1979 Model: El Camino Posted: Sat Jul 26, 2008 8:33 pm    Post subject: Give me a week and I'll have some updated photos of my '79 El Camino with the 77" chrome side pipes I'm installing.
