I have a 1970 Mustang Boos 302 that won "Best of Show" in the Vintage Mustang Owners Assocication 2023 show. The car is pretty much done except for the exhaust system. My good friend who also owns a 70" Boss had taken his here a few years back and he saved his exhaust system and was giving it to me. He insisted I drive down from San Jose to have Howard at All American Muffler do the work.After setting the appointment we arrived and he was ready to start. He replace the whole exhaust and what I love most he enjoyed what he was doing. He knew his trade and set up the car beautifully. The price was fair and worth the drive down from San Jose to have someone that you can trust. Obviously, it's fun to have the thumbs up sign on the hour drive to and from Salinas. I will refer all my classic cars friends to use All American Muffler. I enclosed the pictures, but took mostly videos because the car now sounds incredible. Thanks Howard!

Best guy in town!! Came here for my catalytic converter twice for 2 different cars. Hands down he is very reasonable and helpful. Car also passed smog with flying colors.

All American Muffler is a great shop to have your custom exhaust needs taken care of. They are very communicative and their work was of great quality. I'm glad I found well experienced fabricators to get the job done right the first time!

Howard was very friendly and honest. Someone tried to steal my catalyst converter but they failed. Unfortunately, the pipes were cut all the way through. I took it to All American Muffler after my friend, Dr. Andy Yee, referred me. Howard not only welded the pipes but he also fixed my heat shield from rattling as well. Best of all, since I am a good friend of Dr. Andy Yee, he did not charge me regardless of my begging him to let me pay him. Thank you Howard for your wonderful hospitality, friendliness and honesty. I would give 10 stars if I could.

I came to have my exhaust fixed after Hyundai in Seaside refused to take responsibility for damaging my vehicle. All American Muffler fixed the damages within an hour handled all my concerns with ease and professionalism. He worked with me to pay over the phone since I had to leave at a crazy low price. When he told me that it would cost no more than 70 bucks I couldn't believe it. I was expecting to pay 250. American Muffler is were I will go for now on for any welding for any of my vehicles. They will provide you with equally awesome service.Service: Exhaust

I recently had both of my flex pipes on my A4 replaced here. Howard and his son Nate run a good business, and do great work. They inspected & diagnosed free of charge (as I was doing the work with them), and resolved the problem 100% and were very fast.The only reason I didn't leave a 5 star is because the price of labor was increased for me bringing my own parts. I asked if that was because they weren't going to make all the (quite a bit) mark-up from their parts, and he said yes. While I don't agree with this, personally (labor cost is labor cost), he was 100% honest and direct about it.

My go to place, messed up one time recently and went somewhere else, big mistake had have Howard and his son fix the issue and found that the other shop I used had put a used and damaged muffler, Howard did an awesome job and even took my truck the following week to have a muffler and tip put in, these guys are the real deal, hard to find straight up honest businesses around here so I'm glad I found one

Howard was awesome. Super nice guy. Extremely helpful and knowledgeable. He did a great job swapping my downpipe and we had a great conversation. He let me watch him while he worked, which was great for me. Extremely reasonable prices. Howard is a champion and he ll have my business again if I ever need anything. Thank you!

My niece was looking for a shop that can install a catalytic converter shield and All American muffler was responsive but also offered a good price for labor. Definitely a business you should support! He gave recommendations on smog and adjusted the muffler with no additional charge since another shop didn t do a good job. Thank you!

Howard is just incredible. He got under my motorhome in pouring rain to fix the muffler and got us back on the road in 15 minutes for a low, reasonable price. Thanks from my heart HowardService: ExhaustService: Exhaust

Highly recommend All American Muffler. I had both my trucks done here recently a 2018 Chevy Silverado Z71 and let me tell you Howard is great along with his son. It's a family owned business that does great work. Howard and his son are so friendly and helpful with any questions you may have. Their prices are great and work is quality. I highly recommend you go pay them a visit for all your Muffler and exhaust needs.

Great experience at American Muffler. They welded my exhaust pipes together quickly and they even fixed another exhaust leak I had by tightening the bolts. They were able to get me in the same day and the price was fantastic. I would recommend this shop to anybody. Thanks for the great work!

I dropped my car off to have a complete new exhaust system put on it. I was given a very fair quote before I left the shop. I received a phone call about an hour later and my car was done. I'm super impressed with how everything worked out. Car runs and sounds great!

Muffler was too close to drive line cut it half broke bell housing was charged 1400 for the exhaust then was told the damages were do to motor mounts then paid 900 for him to repair damages done by poor quality work performed by his shop but had to repair motor mounts that I had a receipt for I had them done 2 weeks prior to the exhaust getting the truck back after 3 months to have to pay for damage caused by the installation of exhaust but was shown pictures of holes burned in my exhaust pipe iseveral areas the owner is not on to stand behind his work and I will never use or recommend his shop to anyone and I would warm against useinService: Exhaust

A great father and son duo that did excellent work on my all original '69 Z28 Camaro. This is the place to go if you are meticulous about how your exhaust system needs to look. Incredibly fair pricing for California too.

I called them a couple of days ago and specifically asked if they could replace my muffler while I waited. They said yes. So I got up bright and early in the morning and went down there today and he tells me no. I would have to leave it. Being as though I am on vacation, I have no other Transportation or any place to go in Salinas while he takes care of the work. Not very professional at all.

Excellent and knowledgeable staff. They were able to accommodate my customized request while adding their expertise; which, resulted in an exceptional sounding exhaust system on my VW. Military friendly and attention to detail is one of their top priorities.

Able to get an appointment within 2 days, did a solid repair in less than an hour, and charged what he'd quoted.
