Fussy homeowners association?

Edit: seriously, im wondering if he is using the repop chambered pipes, (factory available on a 69 camaro, and not really much of a muffler, just crimps in the pipe). Those chambered exhausts use up a lot of space, but are really loud. Probably needed to do something, anything, to quiet it down. (Temporarily, im sure!)
