Who makes quality 68/69 442 stock tail pipes. This company looks to make nice kits but we are looking for just tailpipes.

Hi Bernhard
Gardner will sell you just the tail pipes or any piece you need

Thanks

 

Used Gardner recently for a complete system on a '69 442 at the recomendations of forum members. Quality was excellent, we were very satisfied.

Good luck!!!

 

I don’t think Gardner sells individual pieces

 

And do it right....Should be roughly a pinky finger between the bumper and the tip befoe the flare so ~1/2". Also the tail pipes when viewed from the side should tuck tight against the trunk floor. Not touching of course.

 

Gardner will only sell pieces if you bought the complete exhaust system from them prior.

 

What Greg said is correct, they only want to sell whole systems.

 

I have used Inline Tube pipes for my '70 and was very satisfied with them

 

It's not clear from the wording of your post whether you're looking for "original" tailpipes or if aftermarket would be acceptable. In terms of routing accuracy, you can find many options available in a Summit catalog (Pypes, Flowmaster, etc.) They'll work fine and will, in almost all cases, be mandrel bent (unlike the "originals") and are offered in plain steel, aluminized steel or stainless and various diameters. Once installed, only a diehard enthusiast would know they differed from "originals".
Obviously, if you're doing a correct restoration and want/need original style tailpipes, these won't do but all of the parts suppliers offer "original style" kits. I'm not sure how good/accurate those are. Gardner has a good reputation but I've found them to be somewhat strict and un-flexible when I've inquired about purchasing portions of a full kit. I'm not sure whether places like Year One or Parts Place offer just the tailpipes but I'd have to think so.
By the way, I've always liked your tagline. I have a '69 442 and am with you on the 400G!

 

... or whether you mean full tailpipes or just the extensions.
