Sidepipes on a 72
A friend of mine is looking at buying a 72 vette that has been setting in a climate controlled garage for 15 years.The car only has 42,000 miles.The car has sidepipes on it now.What was the last year for factory sidepipes?

Re: Sidepipes on a 72 (jlsru75)
the only year the C3 had side pipes was 69' and if I rememeber correctly
it was not even for the full production year of 69'.
The pipes are really nice sounding, but the noise will get to ya on road trips.
I recently removed mine and replaced with the factory under-car exhaust.
I can now listen to my radio and drive without having to wear ear plugs.

They were available from the dealer into the early 70's. If the dealer installed them when the car was new, then technically they could be considered "original".

I like side pipes on the 72s.
