Termyn8or -> Silver - catalytic convertors (5/15/2008 9:54:38 AM)

The cat on your car is pretty much what could be called an afterburner. Mainly what it does is get hot.
There is platinum in them and they have a very high scrap value. Scrapyards nowhave very enhanced security and my buddy works at one, handling security. As such he interacts with others, law enforcement included. But what he told netheother day almost seemed out of sorts, but I think I believe it.
They are going to start putting silver in the cat on your tailpipe.
Reason ? 1. They can, it will work and 2. Platinum is two thousand dollars an ounce and silver is about sixteen dollars an ounce.
Remember what I said about silver a while back ? Well up just came another industrial use for silver. If you got any now, hang on to it if you can afford to.
TWO cats have been stolen off my truck. They are paying enough that it makes it worth it. A battery operated die grinder is a great tool for theives. It makes noise yes, but they are done fast enough that you are not likely to catch them.
You just wake up in the morning, start your car and it sounds like the whole exhaust system fell off. My buddy tells me they are getting really strict, and now you can't scrap anything without a picture ID. But that is not going to work. Them having a license does not tell you where they were at four in the morning last night.
