Description
My son took this engine out of a 72 'Chevy truck probably 10 years ago. I've hear so many times, "Mom, I'm REALLY going to use this someday, please don't get rid of it". What's a mom to do---well this mom didn't get rid of it, I turned it into a planter!!! I think I'll send him this foto!! I posted a pic** of it before; check it out!!

Very creative use, Marilyn. Don't think he'll mind...not after 10 years time.

I started with a 1956 Chevy truck V-8. You can find some modelling of it in my gallery. Your son was already in the short block and long block era by the time he got his so the idea that you could buy cheaper than you could build was well entrenched and junk engines only had core value to rebuilders. This is why my words fall on deaf ears today.

A silk purse out of a sow's ear indeed -- blow it up into a poster-sized shot and send it to him framed....I'm sure he'll appreciate it! Great shot of a great recycle!

Well at least it is serving a pupose now Marilyn, I recently had my bath and toilet removed for a walk in wet room, I was going to use the loo as a planter, her who must be obeyed wouldn't let me. Excellent work. Bravo!!!!!
