Marty:
I had the same problem on my 1974-1/2. It was a Texas car, and
frankly the rust was not very bad, but I could not get the pipes apart.
I finally hauled out the angle grinder and cut them into pieces for
removal.
Cheers,
Vance

Subject: Re: Disconnecting Frozen Exhaust Pipes
Thanks George and Dale. The old parts are off and the new system it on.
I
purchased a Moza Pacesetter. They are made in Phoenix, so it was just a
short ride from work to pick it up. Quality of the exhaust system is
good.
Wish I could say that about the mounting hardware and instructions.
Everything was made well, except the rubber grommets are low quality.
The
left side bracket just doesn't work well enough to be a solid install.
It's
on but I'll have to find something to remount it with. Parts were
labeled
with the wrong numbers, although pretty easy to figure out what there
really
were. Picture on the instructions not of much use. Tried th ebrackets on
4
differnt times and ways before getting a good fit on the right side but
not
good on the left. Now that I have it on, I like the sound and how it
looks.
Louder than stock but not enough to knock your socks off.
