Slightly related but a military base in hungary had all the converters from their fleet of Jeeps stolen a few months ago, tells a lot about the country. I don’t know who they were but they have my utmost respect.

If you wanna learn hungarian

The bulb at the bottom is the cat, the rest is just exhaust pipe. Kinda odd to be carrying it all around, must’ve found the whole thing on the side of the road or something.

I mean, if they had the tools to remove it they’d’ve just removed it. As is it looks like it probably rusted off on one side and then banged against the road until it came the rest of the way off.

I don’t know for sure, but I think it’s just the bigger part at the end by his hand, and the whole exhaust pipe is still attached

They have platinum inside. They’re worth a lot at scrap yards.

Isn’t it specifically cats from California because they’re like 5 times the price to be valid for Smog checks.

almost (all?) newer cars are made to California emissions standards because it is such a large market with the most stringent standards … and the US has never passed effective emissions standards nationally as far as I know

Catalytic converter theft is a serious problem nationwide.

Wonder if I should get a Juggalo bumper sticker so people won’t steal my car parts as well.
