Cool paperweights!

[BoostedGT480]

A member actually gave me this idea, so I was going to see who was down. Most know by now I blew my motor...Well, I still have 6 (well 5 because Im keeping 1 set) pistons/rods. I was told to possibly sell them as paperweights to have around the garage. I thought it was neat, plus it would help out with my engine build. Every penny is needed at this point. lol. Of course, I went the expensive route, but I would rather do it RIGHT the first time.

So, who would be down to buy a cool paperweight? 1 paper weight would include a piston and rod bolted together. (3 rods are straight, 1 slightly bent, 1 bent, 1 really bent)

Thinking $40 shipped per set. What you think? Here are some pics!

That is an expensive paper weight

the set on the furthest left is SOLD!

The set on the furthest right is staying with ME!

The 4 in the middle are still up for grabs!

 

[BoostedGT480]

Some people might like having a set...I think its pretty cool myself. Im open for offers...Its kind of more like a donation to help fund my build, but get a cool paperweight...

Those two on the right are where its at . Good luck with the build bro!

That's what I'm using my stock rods and pistons as.... They make awesome paperweights

yea, I think its pretty sick...Makes the garage feel more 'manly' haha

The really bent rod will be a constant reminder of what can happen...I prob wont race anymore. lol

LOL, nice paperweights!

The rods are so small, crazy how they just bent like that.

I'd give you 50 for the one all the way on the right. the really bent one. the one you want to keep

How bad is the crank?

How bad is the crank?

the crank is fine. There are still 2 broken rods attached to it, but other than that, I didnt see/find any damage

Brandon, hook me up with a paperweight if you don't sell all of them. Would look good on my computer desk..... LOL.
