It could only be scrap metal value . But then again, I shouldn't really judge, it may have some value to a collector HS Quote ' I have a very gweat friend in Wome called Biggus Dickus, He has a wife you know, do you know whats she's called?

Contributing Member fredk Posted September 8, 2020 Contributing Member Report Posted September 8, 2020 Scrap value, about 75p. Current scrap steel/iron price in the UK is about £75 per clean ton. However, I've seen a vintage car engine that was used as an anchor totally rebuilt and put back into a vintage car. The engine was given to the car owner as an anchor for his boat. One man's scrap is another man's required item for a resto Quote Al speling misteaks aer all mi own werk..
Members Sheilajeanne Posted September 8, 2020 Members Report Posted September 8, 2020 Fred....wow....just...WOW!! I guess there's always someone that enjoys a challenge! Quote
Members Handstitched Posted September 8, 2020 Author Members Report Posted September 8, 2020 In an effort to keep this thread on topic ....well.....sort of ( I'm sure the LW mods might laugh at that.... ) it could be turned into some sort of sewing machine. Maybe as an outdoor display for a sewing machine service or restoration business ? Anyone with a welder and some creativity could do that . No-one would dare steal it, it would give them a hernia !! 7 hours ago, fredk said: One man's scrap is another man's required item for a resto or, ' one man's trash is another man's treasure' . I've seen the passion that goes into sewing machines on here, so nothing is impossible .
