I can go with Gardner, but hate to replace the whole system since it's still in nice shape. Prefer to just install the tail pipes if I can get them reasonable. Not something I have to have, but would like to have. Let me know what you want and if more than I'm willing to pay, I'll let you know.

I have Walts number. he is retiring, may have already. So call him and buy what you need for now and for the future. I bought a set two years ago just to have them for my coupe. PM me if you want to call him.

I have Walt's number (possibly an old one)...left voice mail, but no return calls. I've called a few time over the past several months. It's only a cock block if you have a sure score lined up...I'm not that easy.

I would appreciate being put on that same list for a set. Only one set not meaning to be greedy. Whom ever is available to contact him for me would be greatly appreciated. Last I remember he charges around a grand, If I'm wrong let me know, don't like getting ripped off either.

No where near a grand if you're talking just about the crimped tail pipe section. You can buy a complete set from exhaust manifold back from Gardner for a little more than that. I think Walt was selling them previously for under 400.00 for the tail pipe section. I never got any so don't know for sure?

I bought 2 1/2 from him last year $480.00 . Seems like the 2 1/4 were around $400 , he also sells complete kits not sure on the price.

Saw Walt in person this last Saturday, he said he knows lots of people want the tail pipes, keep trying his phone number that's in the JWO magazine. He's an old fart (like me) and does things at his own pace, be patient.

A lot of doing things at a slower pace Mr Green. I still think all of us old farts should plan a trip before we hit 65. (which wont be long for a lot of us) Maybe just show at BRO's with a few cases some day...
