My entire exhaust system, on my van, is shot. I have a hole in the muffler thats about as big as the muffler itself.

So, I figure, as long as I have to replace the whole thing, I may as well replace the system with duals. And, if I'm doing that, I may as well have dual FlowMasters. W2B doesn't see the logic in that thought progression, but I just had the A/C fixed for her, so she's not complaining about it, anymore, lol.

So, question is, who in the Richmond area does inexpensive and reliable work of that nature? I don't necessarily need it done fast. I rarely use my personal vehicles.

Hmmm. I don't know anyone in Richmond, but I have 3 guys in Woodbridge and Manassas that I trust and do very good custom work. If you are willing to bring it up here, I will introduce you to one of them.

What brand/model van is it?

It's a Chevy G20 conversion van; 350 engine.

I appreciate the offer, Marc, but I think that driving up to Woodbridge will conflict with the other things that I need to do, when I come home again. If I was planning on going to my parents house for a couple of days, it would actually be pretty convenient. But, everything that I need to do requires me to be going the opposite direction. Thank you, though.

I'll reach out to some people I know in the Richmond area and see if they can recommend a good exhaust shop.

Are we talking about a minivan or a full-size shaggin' wagon?

Full size shaggin' wagon I wouldn't know what to do with a mini-van, these days. The full size van feels like a golf cart, after spending 6 weeks in a truck. Last time I was home, I drove the Caddy, while the van was having the A/C fixed. That was just weird. Felt like I was sitting on the road!

I would want a pimpped out 650 my my personal vehicle. Shoot, I don't even drive tractors for a living and I'd still love to rock a 650. I just can't afford one.

Love the shaggin' wagons!

A couple weeks ago I saw a brand new set of "Side Pipes " on Craigslist . I would have jumped all over them if I had something COOL to put them on !

@Marc: I assume that you mean the Ford F650, and not the Ford 650 farm tractor, or the John Deere 650 farm tractor?

@ORS: I wish my shaggin wagon was as awesome as that!

@Snakester: I would have been all over some sidepipes, myself, but my van has running boards. As cool as sidepipes are, I would rather keep the boards. I intend to put some chicken lights on the running boards.

Is that your actual van? That is pretty sweet.

Yep... Ford F650. Awesome truck. Who wouldn't want to rock this bad boy?

No, I wish that was my actual van, lol. I have always loved the 70's era custom vans.

The F650 is a beast, but not really my style. I'm more into the classics.

W2B and I frequently talk about getting a classic Peterbuilt to drive when we're home; we figure that it won't feel so weird. Just remove the 5th wheel, and add a flat bed. Good to go.

With that Ford F650? I would have a stick in a mirror image that says "SCREW YOUR PRIUS! MOVE OVER!" and put it on the BUMPER!

LOL

That F650 needs a "COW CATCHER" like the Steam Loco's had !

There could be a Prius stuck under that truck somewhere.

OOOOOHHHH!!!! Even BETTER!!! Go to the junk yard, find the bumper/toyota symbol for a Prius, paint a MOUTH on the F650, and put PART of that hanging out!

heh-heh....

Now that would be fun. LoL

I saw an old 4x4 pickup, once; lift kit, massive tires; had a big decal in the back window that said "Prius Eater ".
