    Having difficult time finding complete OEM type exhaust system for my second series 55 cameo (6 cylinder). One place on line had it at an unholy price (not even stainless), checked regular vendors and some local folks with no luck with anything but the muffler. Greatly appreciate any information. Thanks, Frank

    Show truck ? .

    If not , just run it to your local indie muffler shop & they'll easily bend you up one.....

    Over on the '47 ~ '54 forums someone posted the name of a place that had it in stock....

    Olny one I have found is at patrick's antiques and it for the 1st and its like $600. I saw a kit on ebay

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250548715479&viewitem=

    Its $600 and comes with split manifolds. Made of aluminized tubing. Everything you need to do it at home.

    You could also take it to a shop. But make sure the exhaust comes off of the manifold first or they may have to drill and tap you manifold and install new studs. I did my own.

    Good luck

    Bend up some 1/2 inch conduit and take to your near-by muff shop. The guy actually told me to use a coathanger, but I need alittle more length than that. They will get it close enough for you to run with it. Stainless can get costly. I am going dual fenton and it is going to run about $100 to get to my Smithys. Rob
