Has anyone DIY'd their exhaust (w123 300d)?

Considering taking a stab at my exhaust. It is pretty rotten aside from the front pipe.

My plan is to get the OE style front section and resonator combo, then just run pipe out the back (delete rear muffler). Given the odd OE size, I assume this will require adapting pipe sizes.

What is really scaring me is the lovely, rusty flange where the front pipe joins the middle section. I am assuming that getting that off won't be pretty. And will I be able to get new parts properly and sealed up....

I have never messed with stuff like that. Is it practical or should I just let a shop do it?

Thanks
