Stainless Steel Exhaust Systems

From Moss Motoring 1985

Most of us are all too familiar with our exhaust system. For the most part, they are out of sight, but not out of earshot. They hang tenuously under the car, rusting away, eating holes in your parts budget. Replacement is a regular, costly job not on anyone’s list of ‘fun things to do with the car this weekend’.

Many enthusiasts who are replacing mild steel exhaust systems with stainless steel systems recognize the value of a good idea. The demand for better parts is increasing as car owners are less willing to spend money on parts that need frequent replacement.

Although not presently offered for all cars, industry forecasters believe that the stainless system will, in the near future, replace virtually all the mild steel systems now being offered as replacement parts.

Stainless steel replacement systems offer the latest developments in exhaust system design. Motivated primarily by the need to provide rugged systems that will withstand the high heat of modern emission controlled engines, designers have made rapid advances in exhaust system design in the last few years.

Recognizing that not everyone’s needs can be served at once, Moss Motors will continue to offer, as best it can, the mild steel systems.

Two major factors make the investment in a stainless steel system almost a necessity for the person whose car must endure adverse driving conditions and winter storage. The stainless system is virtually impervious to burnout caused by internal condensation and are highly resistant to air and water-borne corrosive chemicals and pollutants.

Stainless steel exhaust systems represent one of the best values in replacement parts today. Compare the initial cost and ‘once only’ labor cost of the stainless system against the labor and parts expense of the several mild steel replacement systems you will need in the future- their value becomes immediately apparent.
