Does anyone know where I could get this exhaust system? I have looked at a few VW sites and I can not find it. ( J tubes are not in the picture)

That looks to be home made.
Did that come off another speedster?
Vintage made a similar exhaust but had larger traditional looking mufflers ...I have one sitting stored in my shop.
This came off of a speedster, I am not sure who made it, I just know that it is not a vintage speedster.

Are you selling it? if so how much and can you post a picture of it please.
What size is the tubing? How loud is it?
Are you trying to replicate this, to match cut-outs in your rear apron/valance?
It does not require any cutouts in the apron, it goes below it,
It's all one piece and very heavy ...unless you are local to PA it would be costly to ship
Tri-Mil; the Bazooka line has something like this, but the headers aren't paired up.
You guys know that the Bazooka (any "dual cannon" system) is a horsepower LOSS when installed, right?
I do now.

No, I live in Houston Texas area.
What I have is a one piece section from the Y at the header back i.e. the L & R pipes and both mufflers ( no header ...about $65 on line) As mentioned it is large and heavy. The only reasonable way to ship would be to cut it where it is sleeved and you re-weld the few pieces...easy peasy. It was given to me a few years ago and has been the shop. I will be glad to send it for the cost to ship from Chambersburg PA 17202 .
IAIN;
If this fits you needs, then this offer is a VERY GOOD deal. Alan, (Dr. Clock) is to be trusted!! He has built about 40 of these cars.
Regarding your car, the more pictures you can post the more help you will receive.

Alan,
Thank you that is very generous, I am not sure exactly the area of the exhaust you are talking about, If it is not too much trouble can you please post a picture, so that I have a better idea.
Dialog me your cell number and I'll send a photo this afternoon It's quicker that way

is this the large or small exhaust? And what are the sizes for small and large?
thanks again for your help and generosity.
Ian, what size motor? Why not save and get an exhaust that preforms at it best. You want your motor to run at its best...it needs to breath!

Bill,
Not sure on the motor size, I looked for a serial number but it does not have one. The motor is made by Geneberg and so is the 5 speed transmission.
Well then, I'd bet you have a bigger than stock motor and it needs to breath!
