Thread: Whats the deal with catalic converters???

Tweet

I mainly worked with the Ford stuff, saw the cat in two, remove the honey comb stuff weld back together--later discovered that I could use one of those flat bladed drill bits to cut a hole and then collapse the stuff and vaccume out the pieces

If anyone has any Catalic Converters for sale DO NOT CUT THEM OPEN!!!!!! To get the best price a buyer needs to see the Cat to determine the value.

My son is in the Automotive Recycling business. His main business is tires but also buys Cats, starters, engines, aluminum wheels, etc., from cars. Every so often he loads up his van with 15 inch Chev steel wheels from here in Minnesota and takes them down to Missiouri and sells them. On the way home he buys Cats. He also buys them on E-bay. Some of the Cats are only worth $5.00 while other ones up to $175.00 each.

My son makes about $2.00 on each one - I wouldn't monkey around with them for that little bit of profit, but he works in volumn. SOOOOOO if any of you wants to sell any PM me and I'll pass you name on to him.
