It probably falls within the scope of my abilities. It would have to go back up on the ramps.
I just repaired an inch-long split in the tailpipe with a fiberglass bandage, aluminum flash metal and two hose clamps. A "$250" repair for sixteen dollars.
The first attempt went off the end of the ramps and I had to jack the car up to get them out again. The second time, with the front up I had to use two bottle jacks in three lifts to level it up. Fortunately I have six jack stands.
What was really noticable is to raise it off the side jack points, I had to lift the center rear jack point two inches before the side jack points cleared. That body has no torsional rigidity at all.
