You should get one from the start when you bought your car.
A:
With all due respect to the answer above, cars were produced for 73 years before the introduction of a Catalytic Converter (1975) 35 years ago. Any car made before 1975 is not required, nor designed, to have one (CAT's produce a LOT of heat that older cars are not designed to deal with). Cars made between 1975 and 1995 are only required to have one, if its emissions cannot be controlled under other conditions (OBD I systems). With the introduction of OBC II systems in 1996 the system required the use of the Catalytic converter to function without errors.
