The father of a highschool friend could do wonders with a soupcan and some
clamps. At one point he had a Chevy Nova which had an exhaust that consisted
mostly of soup cans. Probably had more money tied up in clamps than it would
have cost to buy a new exhaust.

After 40 years of patching mufflers, wrapping with two layers of metal
(preferably galvanized) which has been bedded with muffler patching goo from
FLAPS, and secured with four clamps evenly spaced; is the longest lasting
patch I've found. If there isn't enough room on the pipe, then it goes to
an independent muffler shop. The chains usually waste ones time and/or
money by trying to sell new parts. A good muffler guy can do wonders with
welding and often do it cheaply.
