    1st Gen Exhaust Tail pipe

    Does any one have a surviving 1st gen exhaust tail pipe (even a rusted out one)? I would like to see what the original routing looks like.

    TIA

      Not sure if it is original (speedo reads 55,000mi), but for what its worth:

        Hum that looks very helpful - looks like original style - I have been researching to see the end length / were it ends.
        Thank-you

          I went to a local muffler shop to have them bend one up and they actually had one hanging on the rack. I will try and get by there and see if they have another.

            I will get a picture for you Gary.

            Mine is all original.

            Even the chrome tail pipe tip.

                  Pic to answer PM - the length of the very end of the tailpipe is 3.5" to the apex of the curve:
