Saw this on Craigslist, tried to find Russ Collins ATSF.

Here is a pic of Russ Collins on the Atchinson, Topeka & Santa Fe which he crashed and then turned the engine pod into a coffee table.

i love how every ad on craigslist now lists dope as a trade. you should trade a tangible item for something you are going to smoke.

maybe im high i dont see it


Possible trades: Ammo, Amc parts, Jeep CJ parts, 8k winch, good 33 inch tires, Ipad, Ipod, laptop, performance Chevy parts, stereo system, electronics, sailboat, kayak, ammunition, guns, old car or truck, baseball cards, some body / paint work, anything of value, you tell me what you have..

Not with that valley, and the water pump holes are wrong too, two bolt and LS are three bolt. Front cover bosses are wrong too. Definetely an older block but not a GM

That picture shows three- 4 cylinder motors stacked in a row. Looks like three old Kawasaki 1000's. I see no v-8 on that bike. Cool table, but the bike pic does not match the table.

The bike has three Honda 750 engines enlarged to 1000 cc each and after Russ crashed it, he built it inton a coffee table in the lobby of RC engineering, I was just commenting on other engine based coffee tables, not saying the V-8 and the bike are the same.

Sweet table! Would be an awesome man cave addition.

I made some garage stools out of a couple of Cooper GMVH power pistons but they were too heavy to move around so I scrapped them.
