Les, my muffler is also caved-in from previous owner hitting something. However, I had a new end put on it for about $100 (as I recall), but left the dent which does not affect the muffler's function. Merely shimmed the bracket to secure the muffler. Another thing I did was to change the tail end to direct the exhaust to the street away from my towed car. Most likely, I will have to replace it sometime in the future.
