Which part did you blow out? If the pipes are still in good shape,
a muffler shop shop should be able to weld some new mufflers in
there (should be good for a few years at least). I'm still running
an Ansa I bought three decades ago, albeit with some 'Heartthrob'
glass packs stitched in; it's got a bit raspier sound--sometimes,
people think I have a Nasty Boy--but I don't hear it much at speed.
Some shops can fab a whole new set for you--minus downpipes--and it
might not less than Moss's 'Tourist Trophy' chromed set. Mike
Lempert, of steering wheel fame, was going to fab some Ansa
knockoffs, but never did.<br><br>
Side note: There are two kinds of mufflers that I know of:
glasspack, and 'turbo' (baffled). The Ansa was glasspack, and
originally made my car sound like a 6-cyl Ferrari (noticeably
higher pitch). Anybody know what the originals were?<br><br>

I blew out my muffler on my 59 100-6. I bought a lifetime Midas
warranty 42 years ago and the shop that last replaced it said that
Moss has them on back order. He is will to source one if I can tell
him who has one in stock. I think foreign shipping is beyond their
good will. So any ideas on US companies that might have one in
stock?</div>
