I just removed the crusty, rusty elbow from my 73 last week. I soaked it with PB Blaster for a few days then whacked away at one of the tangs on the lock nut with a chisel, it wouldn't budge. With a little more whacking, I was able to split the nut, remove it, and get some more blaster into the threads of the elbow itself....big ol pipe wrench with a pipe on the handle for leverage, and voila...its off. I would soak it good for a few days and try again.
