Not So Pro 3

My understanding they can get around $400-600 per converter...I heard that figure from a Deputy Sheriff a couple years ago who worked with my sister.

I tell you I couldn't understand the
risk vs reward but we are talking about
Meth heads.
My plumbing teacher nephew watched surveillance video
Of a guy with a hatchet
That climbed under a mobile classroom
Think double wide trailer.
And spent 6 hours at night hacking
About 20.00 worth of fittings
Out to steal
He crawled out bloody my nephew said.

I've seen a/c condenser units torn apart for a mere few dollars worth in the aluminum coils. That's just how f'd up that *s-wordt has got 'em.

Have I said fukk cars recently?
Guy has 100 miles left on power train warranty so I have to tear it down to do a cost comparison of rebuild vs replace.


For some reason the other guys never have to do this, they just replace.

The entire 1234 and 34r clutch assembly has welded itself to the 456 clutch hub and 1234 clutch hub.
Nice..

How much do they get for each converter?

Prices are all over the place. It depends on the model of car/truck and the style of converter. Anywhere from $20 to $900+.

https://yscatalyticrecycling.com/price-list/

A lot of scrapyards just give a set price for each converter, say $40-50 (maybe less), knowing they will lose on some and kill it on others. Ultimately, the main buyer will grade each one and determine what they will pay the scrap yard for each one. There is a chance the converter you thought was worth $500 is only worth $50. It takes somebody with a lot of time and knowledge to accurately grade a catalytic converter. Not saying all scrap yards don't have that skill, but most of them don't.

If you can get $300-500 for a converter, you are definitely at a scrap yard that knows their stuff...

You dumb asses. I named it after my cousin Jeff. It looks like him.

That would have been some pertinent information to have right there.

@GCJenks204 why did Maurice just walk away? We got some coverage on it but you probably got more details.

He says the boys needed a new voice. He loves the team so much that he knew it was time and didn’t want to force them to fire him. They were all too loyal to each other but the best thing for the team was for him to leave.

He doesn't look like the gangster of love to me.

It's name is Jeff.

Should’ve named it Mike

He isn’t a space cowboy either

Hit the Giant Foods supermarket on the way home from work today…got my discount yardbird, lol. Buddy of mine from HS days decades ago owns this particular Giant Foods franchise (his dad owned it for many years before he took over). Anyhoo, I get yardbird for pennies on the dolla from him. All I do is call him and let him know I’m swinging by. 4 whole cutup chickens, two family packs of 8 each thighs, 10lb bag of leg quarters. Rung up price $37 and some change…my drive out price $15 before tax. They cut all their meats there at the store, three butchers in the meat dept every single day. Got it all broken down and into freezer bags and to the shop freezer it went.

Bird is the word…
