If that's the colonoscopy of your cat, the ceramic bricks have been broken out and removed, leaving you with pretty much a straight pipe. By the looks of the nut/bolt hardware it's been that way a while.
New cat from our host is around $450.
Most OEM units time out around 150,000 miles, so the odds of purchasing a used 30-40 year old unit in working order are nil.
We could argue for days about whether or not your car requires the back pressure provided by the cat. I don't know about EPA compliance in your state, the car will run O.K. with your non-cat or a better looking after market straight pipe (test pipe), but the foolproof fix is a new replacement cat.
