    I have a 65 Impala wagon in need of a new exhaust. I see Classic Industries do a system for sedan and coupe. Will that fit, aside from the rear section after the axle, which I think will need extending? Has anyone tried a sedan exhaust on a wagon???

    I would think your best bet is to call or write them. I would think that everything would be the same to the rear axle. But I'm only guessing.

    Yeah did that thanks, they weren't too sure, but good enough price to take a chance and fab the rear section. I want to get it running good, the body and paint might have to work. Full size wagons make UK "estate" cars look super weenie!!

    The sedan/coupe system won't fit the wagon because of the fuel tank location.
    You'll need to modify the tailpipe(s) to clear the spare tire storage area and the fuel tank.

    If you haven't already ordered the sedan parts, try Waldron's Exhaust.

    I'm fairly certain they have the correct wagon parts for both single and dual exhaust.
