UPDATE:
Slide hammer worked!!

Hardest part of the process was securing the pipes to the table, so when slide hammer'd, the pipe didn't fly away!
Sprayed some degreaser on the baffles, rinsed, soaked in evaporust for 16 hrs, then a quick hit on the bench wire brush-- voila, they look ok.

the middle one, taken from the pipe with the long hanger, was the most affected by rust. The baffle 'lost' a bit off its top ((probably still in the pipe))! But the rest isn't brittle, so it should work ok.
My followup to all of this.
Each muffler pipe has some rust inside. I hear it rattlin' around in there. How do I get
that out?? How much should I worry about the insides? Maybe I can fabricate an extension to the shopvac, so as to get deep in there?!

I thought about buying a cheapo "endo-scope" off of amazon to look up in there. But then again, I've never looked inside any muffler before, so I'd have no benchmark!
Thoughts?
