Re: 1980 Chevy C10 - Ugly but Functional

Health and weather finally cooperating. Knocked out the exhaust, partly. Learning to weld and fabricate exhaust has been interesting. I used stubs cut off of a factory truck Y pipe, 45 degree elbows, and a little toying around to get the fitment. Nailed the passenger side... drivers side I missed the angle but I'll fix that as soon as its not snowing or raining.


Ignore the fuel line and filter hanging down... just havent mounted it yet. Not positive I love the routing but it might just have to do for now.




Ignore the super ugly booger welds... it doesnt leak and this is temporary. I'll pie cut the bend and bend it up and outward so it goes straight along the truck and tucked up inside the frame rail. I know it will reduce the diameter of the tubing at the bend but, again, just a temporary solution to get it on the road.
