Re: My 1967 Build (Finally)

Exhaust is done! Aside from deciding if Im going to coat this section or leave raw, but I am very happy with the outcome. It was rather tough though, working under something when trying to create a specific angle is a challenge, your whole perception is modified. Basically how I came up with my proper location was to set it up with some jack stands and decide where looked best, and build from the tip back to the flange. Otherwise I feared I would paint myself into a corner. Thankfully my welder and hands were cooperating and I was able to put down some reasonable welds. Given I do mostly rust repair and tack welds, running a bead can be a challenge to grasp. But I am enthused with it! Its really amazing how much this section of exhaust changed the sound, without it 'boomboxing' under the truck bed.

I have a video of it running on Facebook and will put on Instagram for those who follow on there, I may put some stuff on YouTube so I can link it here as well.
