Looking for someone to custom build an exhaust system.

I've been trying to find someone within a few hundred miles of DFW that can custom build an exhaust system on my '95 TA. It's to be a true dual system with long tube headers and most generic muffler shops won't touch it if it not going to have the original single cat setup. The car can be trailered to whereever and is to have twin cats and mufflers and all original O2s. I've already custom made some of the bracing so the duals will clear certain parts.

And if you're thinking Lanes Performance, they no longer do exhaust setups, only tires now.

Have you tried Kenny's muffler in the Hurst/Euless area off Pipeline?
Little expensive, but nice work. No mandrel bends unless you supply. Considered making your own?

I'm also going to need a custom exhaust done, but for an original '53 GMC pickup. And I'll be looking for one in North Dallas/Carrollton/Plano area next week.

I don't know if you can see it in this pic, but the flange on the exhaust at the manifold is rusted out pretty bad, and I was never happy with the exhaust put on about 10 years ago.

Kenny's is right down the street from my office, but they are expensive and will not do a true dual system if it did not come factory that way.
I'm going to ask John at John's Performance and muffler on Golden Triangle Bvld, and he won't do it, then I have a lead on a place in LEwisville that will, don't have their info with me right now.

And, yes, I have considered doing it myself, found a universal mandrel bend kit with assorted pieces but its $450 for just the pipe and there would be alot of welds in a DIY setup, I was hoping to not have that many welds in it.

When you find their info, let me know. That's close enough to drive the '53 to when we get it started this weekend (hopefully).
