No really. Or at least not what you are expecting. Any "serious" discussion of the item should be mocked accordingly.

Finally swapped ours and found a pristine dual row bearing. LN may want it for their warranty coverage, but that's their problem. As much of a PITA as these damn things are, I'm keeping it so I can mock it every day!

So the question now is, what do I do to display it? I'm thinking about getting it gold plated, but the companies I've reached out to so far haven't responded

Beyond that, however, I haven't thought of how to actually display it. So, any thoughts and ideas from the cheap seats?

 

Im just gonna set mine on my desk at work. Right next to the piston I use to hold paperclips.

 

How many miles were on it?

what month/year was your car built in?

 

Shadow box on the wall with a picture of Cuda's 996 behind it.

 

Yeah I'm a fiddler, so if what ever do allows it to still spin my work output is probably going to go to hell

 

No way will I mock Mike like that. He did what he should have and still lost his motor

I don't want to call that bad karma down on myself

 

I wonder if you can have glass poured over it into a whiskey glass. Then you can see that once in a while while sipping your Lagavolin or whatever you're into. Actually Lagavolin 16 is my favorite scotch.

 

Get a Sit N Spin and modify the bottom with the bearing you got. Instant fun for hours.

 

That would be a massive glass

 

I used to love mine as a kid. One of the few toys I really remember.

I do have a 3 year old who would probably go for that, but I couldn't live with myself if it decided to go and cause a CS&SF

 

I'm eventually going to get a second pristine used dual-row bearing and use it as a filament spindle for my 3-d printer.

 

Might make interesting decor for your office waiting room.

 

Found a local plater and dropped it off this morning for an estimate. Their minimum charge for gold plating is $325 and it falls under that. Not sure if I think it's worth that...

 

That's what gold spray paint is for, my friend! lol
