"When welded to the exhaust pipe it will fit perfect."
Why wouldn't you just weld it to the fender?:smoke: It seems if you weld it to the pipe it would rub your paint off.:confused::exit: Got to check ebay.:exit:

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

The bezel is bolted to the fender, and the exhaust pipe will be on a exhaust hanger but centered better. I have a big exhaust tip that fits over the inside of the Corvette bezel, but that might burn the paint if it heats up the bezel. :devil:

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

wow if i ever need to have some floor pans replaced ill bring it to you

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

they have this fireproof fabric band they wrap around motorcycle exausts sumtimes to prevent burning there legs on it maybe you have room enough between the pipe and the bezel to put a little bit of the stuff in between
it will draw away a lot of the heat to the bezel

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

Stand in line. :lol:
I'm getting too busy lately. But that's a good thing. :metal:

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

There's no room. The large tail pipe tips fit tight around the bezel. I wonder if I drilled holes in the pipe before it exits. But it might make it sound funny.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

i said IF :lol:

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

i think they allready do that with diesel exausts i remember seeing sumtin like that in a truck magazine

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

get some kind of heat displacing paint and spray the bezel, should keep heat off it some.

Just sold my wife's Subaru Outback, and picked up her new toy. Or should I say OUR NEW TOY.

This is our 10th Corvette since I was 19 years old.

It's a 2001.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

Let me get this straight, you sold a Subaru and bought a Corvette? You are sooooo the man!!!

Is that vette in front of your house?

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

Thanks. No it's the picture that was on Auto Trader. But it is the car I bought. I got $21,500 for the 06 Outback, and paid $20,500 for the 01 Vette. Who wouldn't ??? I have a great wife. HUH. :metal:
I just took this picture in front of my house.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

There really is only one thing I don't like about that Vette -- It's not mine hahaha

It looks to be in excellent condition!

Yes you do have a great wife, if she goes for "trades" like that!!

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

LOL..."I" was talking about the car! I can't afford another wife!

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

Now all you have to do is put a truck body on that thing.:lol:

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

Watch out Mr. Ron................

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

The wife has way more than 43,000 miles on her. And yes she is expensive :haha:

Dave, I'm sure somebody has already put a truck body on a Vette. Anybody from this forum?

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

i know of at least one person that has fabricated a 69 body on a complete running frame of an older corvette

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

That's a cool build. I subscribed. That guy has talent. :metal:

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

Yes he does!! It's a shame he is waiting to finish the build because that is going to be one awesome truck!

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

I subscribed but need time to catch up on it.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

Thanks for the pictures.;) Damn I was going to show you the ones I stole maybe later when we can post again. You really take to many pictures.:lol: Spent a hour and did'nt look at a 1/4 of them.;)

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

I've been taking lots pictures over the years. By having Smugmug it doesn't take up space on my computer.
Did you checkout all the car & motorcycle show pictures? :metal:

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

I'm still looking.;) Ever since you got your Vette your no fun.:sumo:

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

I'm getting new tires put on the Vette tomorrow. Get ready for another great smoky burn out. Now the fun begins, :burnout::burnout::burnout:

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

Smoke them till they pop.;)

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
 

I wouldn't want to have it towed there. Besides that's for kids. My mine isn't thinking that young. :lol:
