    Allen's Exhaust - still in business?

    Looking to acquire some SS exhaust hardware (new muffler hangers and a center exhaust hanger bracket) to replace mine which were installed in 1988 when I installed a Classic Stainless (long gone) 2 1/2 inch system. The rubber parts to the muffler hangers are somewhat cracked and I may have to modify a 2" center hanger to fit my 2 1/2 pipes to lower the pipes through the cross member owing to a repro transmission mount that is higher than stock.

    Looked at the Allen's page and its seems to be very dated. Tried their phone number and operator says "number is not assigned". Anybody know whether they're still operating/have a current phone number for them?

    Thanks,

    Grant 26607

      Mike Allen passed away several years ago. However, as far as I know, the business continued. Did you try this number: (574) 722-7272?

        Joe,

        Yes, that's the number I tried. The website has a photo of Mike Jr. who passed away in 2013 and I believe Mike senior died in 2018 or 2019. All the info on the site referred to stuff happening in the past (Bloomington 2014 etc).

        Thanks,

        Grant 26607

          Allen's has an eBay store, although no items are currently showing. There is a "contact seller" button however.

            Thanks. I saw the EBay store, which the website refers to, but the fact that there are no items showing tells me they're likely no longer in business.

              So, by way of update, I just spoke with the Logansport Chamber of Commerce. The gentleman there said he drives by Allen's daily and it appears to be open. He offered to drive by this afternoon and get back to me with info. What a great, community-minded response!

              Will advise....

                Bill from the Logansport CC just called me back to say that the place is definitely closed with a for sale sign on it. Another well-regarded Corvette supplier bites the dust...

                    What a shame. I just got a very nice set of 2 1/2 inch GM sound pipes from them this past January. Tony said they had been hit hard by the Covid and lost some people. He was doing his best to catch up with all the orders when I spoke to him. I guess it became too much for them. They were good people to deal with. That's a big loss!
