    Well, now we see why the converter needs to be sheared - there is a huge amount of garbage inside...

    I don't know what's inside them now, but the early ones had a large amount of platinum in them
    Never try to tell me it can't be done

    I believe there is still some thing of value in them. Cat Converter theft is a common occurance.
