Metal coat hangers. Not a bad idea to have a spool of the same wire to hold up exhaust, coolant pipes if they fall etc. etc..

Did that before, exhaust fell off at the cat, it was loud! I babied the throttle until I saw a dollar store, picked up 6 hangers for a buck and used 4 to tie up the pipe close enough to the cat that it wasn't very loud, then drove 100 miles home.
Another one,
****a soup can

Same thing the cars exhaust broke off at the cat, defening loud, I stopped at the next gas station and they has some groceries, I bought a can of beans, luckily they had a can opener! I took both ends off the can and used it as an extension over teh gap where the pipe broke, squezed it a bit so it would not fall off. It lasted 90 miles home.
OH, this happened in the winter with snow on the ground.
