“I gotta believe some good ol’ boy shade tree mechanic has found a way to covert a vehicle at much less cost.”

Can probably do it at a South Texas machine shop for around 1000 bucks.

My cars exhaust system finally rotted out. Took it to my mechanic who wanted over 2k to replace and that was providing he could find some weld points.

Took it to a South Texas shop. 99 bucks for an entire exhaust system. Was out of there in 45 minutes.

Sounds like my local muffler shop. Around a thousand + or - a few hundred is more in line with what I would expect a conversion to cost. Glad I live in the South.
