        The guys who sell racing collectibles are getting BIG BUCKS for 
        old racer wheels... My vote is to get a nice chunk of Tempered glass 
        and make a coffee table of several wheels welded together...

        Or strain really large pasta through it...

        Or make bookends... Or a bookshelf for your automotive libray.

        How about a decorative border for your garden?

        Yes, folks step right up!
