Evening all. Hope you all had a good Christmas.

Found that horses tail coming out of my exhaust  :o

Rusty at back box join as well, so time for a new back box.  :(

I have two spare cherry bombs. Been on my Deuce and my old Oldsmobile. Still look perfect. I've ordered a couple of 45 degree bends to hook them up in place of the original back box. If they sound good, will stay on there. Either have both exit as twin pipes, or fab one to exit on the opposite side as the other.

Been itching for an excuse.  :y Will keep updated and with sound clips.

Nice car mate and I would use the cherries and put a double tailpipe on each and have them both sides.  :y :y

Cheers guys. Have done some photoshops of tail pipe exit options. Not sure yet which I prefer.

Meanwhile, I have some vids with back box on. back box deleted and with two cherrybombs instead

I'm sold on the bombs and just need to fit them on properly. You need headphones for the most authentic sound.

Cheers X25dt

Got the Cherrys fitted properly now. After first fit found one front silencer moved and just hitting the prop.  A few adjustments, a few clamps and a drive at all speeds, including kick down, everything stayed in place.  :y

Nice idle, nice kickdown sounds and stays quiet when cruising.

Just waiting for my stainless tail pipe trims to arrive.

Painted the bombs black since video.

Had to fit nearside trim at slightly different angle. But can't tell unless you like looking underneath cars,  :)
