Hi Friends and Family and Community - back in September my catalytic converter was cut right off my vehicle while I was parked in a busy, well-lit Walmart parking lot in Burbank, CA (see empty area in the above picture). Little did I know that this was my most valuable possession! I did a temporary fix but still cannot afford the full repair and I suspect there are other problems now (one of my O2 sensors went with the cat). The car stalls after it heats up and cannot handle going up hills. I have been limping it to work but I am on borrowed time. It's pretty much impossible for me to exist in LA without a car and this particular repair isn't something I can do myself.

Please help me have a functional car? I got some ballpark quotes and my goal is based on those (plus a little bit because it's always more) -- and also whatever further issues have been caused by running my vehicle in this condition.

I appreciate any help you are able to give.

Love,

Sam
