Remember that V8 coffee table?

[penski]

Well...

Finally got round to finishing the table...

Quite pleased really, I get to have more bits of car in my house, and my wife loves it. Winners all round!

Probably should have cleaned the glass before taking the photos, but you get the idea...

Mercedes V12

From the same guy...The one who owns that Benz on chrome rims that I posted t'other week.

[BillytheImpaler]

Wonder what he's doin' with the other one?

 

[InvaderGIR]

Oooooh, something posted by Penski that I really like.

Do the bottles come out easily though?

Very cool idea, and well done.

[Butters]

I bet thats not easy to move

 

[Stonedofmoo]

Cool idea

But to be honest once you get over the idea it's an eyesore!

 

[lordrobs]

Thats pretty damn cool

 

[fonzee]

Oooooh, something posted by Penski that I really like.

[Fr0dders]

Trouble is when you decide you want it just a little to the left..

I read the title with V8 in it (having not seen the first incarnation, I assumed it was something mentioned a while back, unfinished) and then got really confused looking at the pictures thinking 'there are 4 cylinders too many for that to be a V8'

Oh how silly i felt when I read the comment underneath

I assume that glass lifts to get to those bottles, or is there enough leeway for them to come straight out?

Hmmm, I might try do this with Krustys old engine if i can and if his insides arnt to badly destroyed

I wonder how the hell ill do that with a boxer though

 

[Sonea Fifer]

Looks pretty cool to me

 

[Le_Petit_Lapin]

Imagine stubbing your toe on that beast!

Looks good. How do the wine bottles get out though, doesn't look like there's enough clearance.....does the top tilt / get lifted off?

My neighbour has one in his TV room made from an engine out of his Supra that he totalled at a race one weekend. Looks pretty awsome, he also has small side tables made from the alloys/tyres with a round glass top.

But to be honest once you get over the idea it's an eyesore!

I agree, it would look good in the right setting but it looks out of place with the furniture in that picture.

 

[andyp]

I applaud the concept.

It looks horrendous though.

 

[Nitro_Junkie]

Cool idea

But to be honest once you get over the idea it's an eyesore!

false it looks ace

and I will have my very own one day

 

[penski]

I want one made from a big block...To keep flagons of ale in.

[DannyW]

would look better with 12 pistons rather then wine bottles

 

[Bennah]

I think it looks cool
