You can still buy them new at the parts store.  Put one on a truck a few months ago.  They are $25 now though instead of $20.

I used to get them for $9.99. They did sound really good on my 3 speed GS in high school. They rapped and crackled!

Had a pair of them on my first car, which was a 66 Galaxie with a 289 2 bbl. My dad did not like them and "suggested" that I change them. One of the few discussions he lost.

Probably shill bidders in the mix.

I won't execute the injustice of posting the actual listing, but my favorite is the $135.00 nos hose clamps that are always on there. That price is for one tower style clamp.  I have to return some cans so I can get all four....Dan
