A 3 inch Magnaflow exhaust system was modified to fit in our Chevelle. The Magnaflow kit comes with mandrel bent tubing and an X pipe, and stainless mufflers. We modified hours for additional clearance around the rear axle.
We did not want to make our final exhaust tip extensions until we had the bumper installed, so the exhaust was left short. It was fully TIG welded for a clean appearance.
Other underside details include a stainless gas tank, and new hardware.
Upfront, the core support was assembled with the Vintage Air air conditioning system, and all of the dash wiring was being installed.
New brake lines were bent along with a proportioning valve hidden behind the power booster.
A II Much fuel vent was mounted in the trunk to keep the gasoline vapors from leaking out from the gas cap.
