Hi! Im 16 and I have this engine block in the back yard. I also have an annoying new step mom who's trying to redecorate the living room that I grew upp in! But I decided I want to make it my own with a sweet engine block coffee table. Im planning on painting it chevy orange because it looks cool and it doesn't match with anything which would bug the crap out of her. Now does anyone have any experience or helpful tipps they can give me in going about this. the block has heads on it but its rusted in place. I don't need it to spin internally but how should I clean up the cylinder heads so they'll look nice sitting in there?

 

You need to get a life, and do something useful.

 

Chill buddy. Im just lookin for an easy project

 

As I said, do something useful.

 

Aight. Ill find something. Want an old rusted up 350? Ha

 

Take the rotating ***., out and leave the caps off, it will sit flat.

 

^^^^Assembly^^^ Man I can even abbreviate it.

 

darkknight has a table from a big block, this is musicmans lamp, pretty cool.

 

I (half seriously) wanted to make an engine block coffee table, with a glass top. "Not in her living room." heh heh. It wouldn't "go" anyway. Oh well, at least I get the basement and garage!

 

^^lol, i get the back porch and the garage.
