Duct Tape

-I've taped the front end back onto a race car after contact with a MPH marker
-Taped a door back together after a kid on a scooter ran into it
-Wraped up a broken u-joint after exploding it to limp home
-and taped a bunch of lug nuts to a guys drive shaft, he was being a jerk, and I'm sure the vibration he felt while driving home scared the crap out of him !!!

It will hold your shoe together if you have a blow out in the middle of nowhere.

A friend calls it mother-in-law tape

College: Sealed leaking sunroof on Olds Cutlass - two applications per year. Also useful for making two canoes into a "four-man drinking platform" on float trips - more stable, less waste.

Now: Covered holes in transom during trailer swapping. Still there too. What can I say, it's Arkansas!

When I was a rep for Car electronics I stopped in at a store and these guys had wired a LARGE cap into this guys seat. So when he stopped by and tried to get the car with out paying he got WACKED HUGE with a shock. He came right into the store to pay
