I know that old cat converters are highly prized by the salvage guys.
Now I have to replace my cat converter and wonder if anyone has checked out
the salvage people for the best price?
When I junked my old 740, the guy came by with a tow truck and told me that the
original cat converters were worth a lot of loot, much more than the after market
jobs. He said that he wanted only the cat converter and wasn't going to part out the car. I could strip anything off the car and he didn't care...I grabbed the
battery.

It must be that early cat converters had much more rare metals that they
hope to recycle. A quick look on the web shows people offering various amounts.

Does anyone have a sense what the 850 cat is worth as salvage?
