Anyone running a Smittys Muffler on their Model A?

Are there any real Smittys anymore? I have a couple of Speedway glaspacks. Tried to find Smittys. No luck.

Original Smitty's were packed with steel shavings, I think swept off a machine shop floor. I put duals on my '41 Buick years ago and one side smoked like crazy for a few miles. Sure sounded nice though!
