Found this at work today tucked behind a bike the owner has there.

Cool idea. Too bad he didn't clean up the bellhousing.

That's awesome!

While I was at the chev dealer we warrantied out the lower half of an aveo (I think?) seat. Once it got to the point of tossing the warranty parts away (had to hold for 6 months or so) I took the base and welded it to a spare stool we had sitting around. Made looking up parts very comfy. Very Happy

Yeah he should have sandblasted and painted it. We have a large sandblaster there, along with a lot of other really nice toys for me to play with Wink

Never underestimate the ingenuity of a gear-head with a welder.
