I have this Ford taurus 1996 wagon, and lately when i start it up a clangy, like pots clanging together, comes form the engine. The noise has gotten louder ove the past days can anyone help?

The heat shield or whatever it's called on the outside of your catalytic converter is probably loose, makes a nice clanging noise on acceleration/deceleration.

Had this happen once to an Escort, and it was nothing two large hose clamps daisy-chained together couldn't quiet down. Probably going on eight years now, they're still there on the original cat.
