Odd Question...

I'm going to make a fishing rod holder to go on the roof of my car out of a piece of drain pipe.

Ok, now me being me, wanted to make this a bit more interesting. If I was to make a scale model of a sidewinder aim-9 missile out of said bit of drain pipe, and attach it to the roof of my car, Would I be breaking any laws/attract attention from police?

Depends how realistic it is

Well I'd paint it up in the correct colours, markings, and make it to size.

Doubt it, it doesn't function as a missle, and your not threatening anyone with it....

Sounds good. need to find 3m of drain pipe as close to 127mm diameter as possible then.

This does worry me abit. I may pop into the local station and check with them first.

Maybe put a notice on my car stating that I am not an arms dealer.

Hehe that gave me a funny mental image of your car for some reason! Remember to get pics once your finished! And write the notice in several languages such as English, Arabic, Chinese and Russian

If you did, you would most certainly be pulled over by EVERY police car/man you ever see
