Walker exhaust used to carry replacement exhaust parts for many of the older platforms for both mid sized and full sized cars. They have since purged most of these from their parts list. They aren't even making them anymore. Waldron Exhaust is the only one who builds these now and they are factory correct. Be prepared to shell out some dough though.

Your best bit is to go to a custom exhaust shop and have them bend you up what you need.

Waldrons shows a complete single exhaust system for $504.  I'd suspect they would sell just the tailpipe.  10-12 weeks lead time though.

I wish I lived near you.  Things have gone crazy around here in the last few years.. Realestate has gone down in value while food, gas, taxes, consumer goods etc have gone way up.. Sick

I purchased my exhaust system from Waldron's Exhaust.  They are good to work with.

Lead times are long, but high quality.

Thanks,

Both my mufflers and glass packs came from Waldron's, I second the recommendation as well. John you're paying for the muffler, tailpipe and Y-pipe. It's a complete system and not a bad price for the quality.
