Custom pipe bending & exhaust installer experts are becoming scarce - it's fast becoming a lost art. So, with my final straw early this afternoon being my "buddy" installer 30-minutes away telling me to come in at 1:00 for a little work, & I get there & he took-off for the afternoon - that's it. Looking for someone I can count on. Any suggestions? No Man With A Good Car Needs To Be Justified

I will be needing to get exhaust from the headers back to the tailpipes on my Dart and I have no idea where to go these days. There used to be a shop at Groesback and Schoenherr that did good work. Had him put full exhaust on my Hemi Road Runner but that was 25 years ago.

For all of the other stuff I've used Doug's Muffler in Mt. Clemens. Been a long time since I've needed exhaust work done though. 1987 Fifth Avenue - 512/518/D60

I won't go to Callahan's ever again - I won't go into details. I'll keep Madison Muffler in-mind. No Man With A Good Car Needs To Be Justified
