Before my wife and I married, I had a SBF that was held up in the building stage. After I got it back from the machine shop, and before I could put it together, it sat in my living room for almost a year. During that year I aquired the bottom of a engine crate, and a glass top. Later, after giving up on the assembly, the Torker II intake became a center piece. Mine differed in the design of the pistons being used in the one above, I like his design though.

I'm not sure you can just go down to the speed shop and buy something like that, guessing one needs to use their own imagination and a little help with welding and polishing tools to get something like going on.

Ok the Internet Guru pulls through!!! Me :D

The artist's name is Christoff Brock. He lives in England. It is a Rover V8 Engine Block. He calls is automotive furniture "Scrapiture". Here are all the various links to his stuff...and yes...I'm sure you can get in line for him to make you a "V8 Coffee Table". Not sure what they run but one of the art galleries has some of his other stuff. I'm guessing $800 plus shipping (OMG can't imagine that to the states!)?

Enjoy. :D

Love the table! Now if we could find a way to have the timing chain hooked up to a cylinder so it also can pour the wine for you!

I saw a show on TV were a guy made a coffee table out of a streamliner bike that almost killed him at the salt flats. The only thing that was left was the motor.

I can't imagine how long it would take to clean the oil spots from you carpet.
