Chromed tail pipes were included with dual exhaust as of May 19 when NC8 was dropped as an option. Many are familiar with how they were serviced over the years, a 2 pc assembly with the chromed portion welded to the uncoated front section.

That's not exactly how it was done in production. The rh pipe was 2 pc, welded to the muffler. The left side appears to be the standard production 1-pc pipe with the visible portion polished and flash-chromed. Original exhaust cars as late as October '69 were built this way.

Credit Warren Malkin for the pic and leg work on this.
