[Healeys] Midas muffler journey

[WILLIAM B LAWRENCE]

Ira, my buddy can set you up with a brand new (it was still in the box it was shipped in.) Falcon stainless steel exhaust system. Last I heard he was asking $350. (What a coincidence.) He probably would charge for shipping also. Let me know if you’re interested.

I don't think they thought I would still have the car, or it would be dead.
They just should have told me 1.5 years ago to go pound sand and not screw with me for so long...

Clearly, Midas thought you'd be dead by now. 😀😀  All and all, it wasn't a bad $45 investment

Happy Healeying,

1Some of you may recall my battles with Midas over the last year and a half. Why Midas? Well 47 years ago there were not a lot of options to get a new muffler installed in my 59 100-6. Midas ran and ad showing an old guy in a model T getting his muffler replaced with his lifetime muffler warranty. I figured what the hell? I am going to own this car for a lifetime. I still have it. They have replaced the muffler 4-5 times over the decades. When I was driving down to Conclave I blew out the inside baffles. So when I got home I calle dup the shop that had replaced the mufffler before. They are now called Midas, no muffler and they did not have a muffler guy anymore, nor did any shop withng 50 miles of my house.
The local shop got a new manager who was sure he could take care of me. I showed un and he backed away from his offer. Today I got a buyout check for my warranty. I paid $45 then they sent me $350.00 today. They put me through 1.5 years of shit and I still had to hound them after I agreed to be bought out three months ago.  Now I;ll have the headers I bought installed and glass packs. Here in Oregon it's still rainy and very cold, but I should be back on the road this spring.
