Ok, ‘74 MY basically stock, I am helping a friend replace the muffler on a pretty much original car.
Is it necessary to remove the rear valance to replace the muffler? Mike |

I've changed mufflers several times with the rear valence in place. Never had a problem. In fact I never thought this would be easier if I had removed the valence.
