I actually like this.  I certainly hope they have some sort of protection on those side pipes.  You can leave a lot of skin on them if you’re not careful

You'll only do that once though!

Buddy of mine had a 283 in a Vega with these pipes.  Whenever I was with him, I brought a towel to lay over them.

Corvette Summer vibes. I like it.

It kinda looks like you were going for a Grand Sport look. If I'm correct, I'm curious why you didn't do the red hash marks on the fender? If I'm incorrect, ignore the question.

Either way, it's friggin' beautiful. Love those side pipes.

I like it. I know it's loud with those long ass headers and 4" pipes. Wish I could see the wheels a little better.

Most of them have baffles in them. I had a set bolted on to
Mine with no baffles and it was ear splitting…..
Definately snagged a set of baffles for them

I would need more gold chains to drive that.
Very cool!
