Crazy car fixes/repairs

I've always got a gallon jug of oil and one of tranny fluid in my vehicle.. tranny fluid probably would work, I think.

About 12 years ago, I had a rottenass '82 Buick. While driving down a back road I probably shouldn't have, the exhaust broke in half between the cat and the muffler, leaving a lacey 4 inch gap. I didn't have any exhaust tubing or muffler clamps with me of course, but I did have plenty of bee- I mean, soda cans rattling around in the back, a couple hoseclamps, and a utility knife. Cut the top & bottom off one can, "sleeved" the inside of the broken pipe, then another (slit up the side) on the outside, hoseclamped in place. Lasted long enough to get home, about 15 miles.
