I own a 1977 Datsun B210. I recently took it into a shop to have a tailpipe bent for the car (the car had a muffler, but no tailpipe).  
  
 When I got the car back I found that they had cut off the old muffler, and ran an exhaust pipe about halfway down the length of the car, where they attached a new muffer.  
  
 Not quite what I was expecting.  
  
 Would anyone happen to know where I could find a diagram of what my exhaust system is supposed to look like so I could show the workers my concerns?

You should be able to order a repair manual over the internet.

The car has 48,000 original miles. I bought it from a little old lady who bought it new. She’s driven it for the last thirty years, but isn’t driving anymore.
