Tell me about it. I've been looking for a set of the Thrush pipes, too, and was shocked at what they are asking for them. Makes sense though, they haven't been made in many moons and with the upsurge in popularity of vintage muscle cars, it was inevitable that folks would want the period dress up goodies. The bare cast and extruded aluminum parts probably didn't fare fare well over the years, so good parts will be rare.
The Thrush pipes looked pretty good, but let's just hope the jacked up look with super long rear shackles or air shocks doesn't make a come back!
I'll be going to the Cruizin' the Coast swap meet in October, but don't think I'll find any much cheaper. EBAY and Facebook tend to set prices nowadays.Last edited by Hotrod46; 09-27-2019 at 06:02 AM.
