Great ideas. Then there is option B. Does anyone have a clean set of pre-L
Mind Trains that wants to swap for a clean set of L Mind Trains?  Check pics
on Provamo #3331.

Mike,
 
There is an excellent close-up picture of the Pre-L Mind Train muffler on my
old car, #2886, on Chucks website www.provamo.com (check my pics in the
registry under 1972 Panteras).

I don't want my tips to rust, so what I might do is cut the tips where they
connect to the muffler, cut the tips in half, then have them re-welded to
the muffer. That way the ends of the tips are left unaltered.


Yes, you shouldn't be cutting through the chromed portion, but rather
through the area where the pipe makes its undesirable bend, which is
upstream of the chrome.  You shouldn't have to cut the tips at all.

Somebody (Doug?) please post a photo of Pre-L Mind Train mufflers so he can
see what he's aiming at?

Thanks!

Mike
