Has anybody out there ever adapted the Fox body, or SN95 GT tailpipes to an early (65-70) Mustang? I like the way they look, and was wondering how they would work on an early model car. Can anybody post some pix of how they attach to the cars originally, and give any insight on adapting them? Thanks. ------------------ Gary M.- 1970 Mustang Deluxe SportsRoof (daily driver), 1946 Ford pickup, 1947 Ford pickup, 1957 Ford Fairlane 500 Town Vic

They sell long chrome tail pipe extensions that look similar and can be welded or clamped to your existing tail pipes. ------------------ Alex Denysenko Co-Administrator and Moderator NHRA/IHRA/SRA member and licensed Superstock driver MCA member# 53321 NHRA and IHRA SS/LA National Record Holder '00, '01, & '02 Fleet of FoMoCo products including 88 ASC McLaren Mustang #28 Professional Manwhore The Barry of BarrysGrrl Quote #1: "I never met a magazine mechanic I liked."

The Flowmaster 2 1/2" "American Thunder" exhaust system (or just the tail pipes) for the early Mustang look exactly like the original pipes on my 85 GT. They are both shiney stainless steel and the ends are cut at a slight angle.------------------ Bernie Frank 66 Fastback restomod project 85 GT (preserved) 82 GT (original)

As long as they look similar, and are stainless, then they sound like what I'd want. I just didn't want to buy some chrome ones, since they rust eventually. Thanks guys. ------------------ Gary M.- 1970 Mustang Deluxe SportsRoof (daily driver), 1946 Ford pickup, 1947 Ford pickup, 1957 Ford Fairlane 500 Town Vic
