I've got these as they were too interesting to pass up.
All I know is they were on a 1973 bug that was a one owner and the seller had old photographs from the 70's/80's with them on the car so they are quite old.
He nor I can find any information on them.
Any one know?

Those are probably worthless. You should properly recycle them. I suggest packing them in a box and shipping them to me. :D
Seriously, I have never seen anything like them. Very cool though. Are the tail pipes baffled? To survive that long without completely corroding away they would have to be a good quality stainless steel. I bet those would polish up very nicely.
Someone here will have an answer as to who made them.
Good Luck. |

It seems they are original Cartune Taper Tips manufactured way back by Cartune in England.
I have also found out the the flared tailpipes I sold my brother a few years back are also Cartune, but are called Road Flares.

Eight more and you can go bowling!
I bet they are loud, but don't add any performance. |

Reminds me of the fellow from Lincoln-----or maybe Omaha----Nebraska
who had brass trombone horns as tailpipes a few years ago. :D |

So like an early fartpipe then?
And those ricers think they are all modern and stuff :o |
