I saw the guy at Midas toss my old one in a trash can when we welded on my Maggy. I wish I woulda asked for it back, now. But I've got two cars at home I can swipe OEM cats off...

They won't let you take them. Well in the US that is. Most every junkyard here cuts them off as soon as the cars come in. Good luck.

thats okay but I do know where there is a pile of them sitting un touched....

Must be 200 or 300 there at an old Muffler shop closed 4 or 5 years ago.
Best part is I own the access to the property Now depending on my enthusiasm and willingness to go exploring. that might be a pretty penny.

that "pile of crap" is probably worth around $15,000 - $20,000

Probably better to sell them indivudally on ebay, buy a bunch of boxes and packing materials, number them, and then box em up and ship em. time consuming but works.

or you could sell them in lots of 10 or so.

or you could check with your local recylers to see what they will give you for them.
