Hopefully next weekend my brother will be on the scene with the old man's welder. Will need to di a bit of fab work to get the exhaust systems married together.
Where is it best to get some steel 45mm o/d tube? DO motor factors usually stell this by the metre for example?
Or can anyone suggest somewhere online?

We have loads of stainless tube that goes for scrap here at my new job but I haven't been here long enough to get stuck into the scrap bin. Need to though, I'm building my exhaust atm too..
