Default What is the best approach for replacing through trunk exhaust tunnells on 60 corvette

Anyone know how to approach replacing the exhaust tunnels that go through the trunk on a 60 corvette. Mine are there but rusted through in places. If it's ridiculous to replace them, then I will try and repair them. Thanks.

Not the end of the world, unless the car already has final paint on it. Need to drill out the seam rivets, remove the Phillips screws, split the upper rear surround from the lower surround, remove the old, install the new and glue/rivet the surround back together. Use the correct metal replacement tunnels.
