anyone have a old rover block that is cracked or fragged?

i might want one for a display,,,

 

I had a tough time sourcing a block about a week ago. I did find one outside of Boston for $400 with no guarantees whatsoever, not magnafluxed or anything.

From what I understand after talking to an aftermarket parts source...lots of the rover blocks get cracked and get moved to the scrap heap.

 

You makin' a coffee table?
OOO, ooo, ooo, lights inside the cyclinders that light up at random would be so AWESOME!!

 

A Disco Disco block Spike?

 

A bare engine block with a glass table on it and lights that light up at random to simulate the cylinders firing.
How cool would that be?

 

I just found this on craigslist... http://knoxville.craigslist.org/pts/1206541379.html Prob not what you are looking for or to spend but how bad *** would it be to have a defender motor that actually ran under your table?

 

hey i have a DII engine that might have a dropped sleeve. If it's bad i will give it two you. i'm in PHX though.

 

well if we work out the shipping that would be awesome,,,

 

very cool!

 

I will get cracking on it and let you know.
