Well look what I got today. The way I figure it Oshawa produced less than 500 pairs of these babies, one year only production, 1973, standard on GTO, GT and optional on LeMans. Two feet of gingerly bent chrome. I never thought I'd see a set of these.
BillyGoat 73 brought these up from the Buffalo area today for me, we had a nice visit and lunch. Bill got to see the Pontiacs I have in storeage plus he got the full tour of the JB Racing shop and diner and a Swiss Chalet lunch!

BillyGoat 73 has the NOS ones used to make these, he also graciously gave me the technical drawaings and specs used to fabricate them.
The originals actually fit inside the tailpipes. I don't think Bill will mind me showing his photo of the NOS ones with these, it's on A body Board anyway. These are left a bit longer to assist with fitment.
You know Hillar's 2+2 had dual cutouts in the rear valance even though the 400 sbc came with single exhaust. He picked up a pair of 70 Chevelle SS tips and had them welded on. You would never know they were not factory. Just an idea.
