New project! The "Red Herring"

[JJorgensen52]

I've been a little distracted this weekend... more on that in a minute.

Built the passenger's side tailpipe


I had to slice the tubing all which ways to get the clearance I wanted ... I wish I had a mandrel bender



You may note there's not a hanger yet - it's going to be the same hanger as an S10 Blazer tailpipe, just haven't drilled the mounting holes yet. That makes three hangers per side.

I'm going to slash cut the tip about 1" below the fender line, but I want it to be parallel to the ground so I'm not sure where that is yet, so not yet.


So who recognizes this one?


I picked this little bugger up for a song with no engine or trans but a nice clean body and all the important pieces that go with it - it's going to get an LS1/T56 swap in the future - but I had it at a friend's house and it was sitting in a field, so I wanted to retrieve it and get it home now that I have some space.

Great job on the exhaust, should sound sweet. I'm doing the same accessible thing for the maintenance on my truck. As for the clearance for the mufflers and pipe 1" to the bed should be lots, I have 1/2"- 3/4" clearance from the mufflers to the fiberglass tub on my jeep 2' from the motor for many years no prob. If that helps.
