I also bet that system is 3 inch pipe... 2 1/2 is the largest which will fit through the factory frame. |

Pics of mine if that helps (exhaust tips went from round to rectangular in the ‘70 model)….
Your stainless outlets will be round for a ‘68 so I’m betting the valence panel has the half moon cutout more towards the outside of the panel exactly where the end of your muffler outlet is located (if that makes sense). |

Things moving along.
Local insurance adjuster turned in his assessment and local shop put in estimate for work to get suspension/engine/brakes/exhaust/dash clusters back together. Guess insurance can do things in parts. 1st check coming soon and then there will be supplements. Local shop has a wait list, so for now the car sits in our garage and most of the parts in the trailer. Step in the right direction. |

Y’all got me thinking. I was like, I don’t see holes for the rear exhaust. Guess DUB filled them in as he mentioned side pipes. Fuq me. I told him I didn’t want side pipes. Damn it.
How hard is it to modify to get the rear exhaust back. 🙄 |

Lady finger is close but no paint needed the chrome will trim it out. Fiberglass does not rust but I would use a sealant.
That Zeek fellow could help with the holes. |

Agreed, you need a template, and it will need to be repainted however the half moon cutout is in the valance panel and the fender.... see example below... |
