Think of the number of bottles you could store in a Pratt & Whitney 4360.

Richard, you should totally do that! But you need corvette cross-flags in the lifter vally... or etched into the glass top.

I have a junk 305 and the rear window out of a kenworth semi to make a coffee table out of.... just hasn't happened yet. Also that C4 wheel table would be /so/ easy to do...
