I have a centre section of A type overdrive (the one I lunched in my TR6, the expensive one) sitting on my mantle shelf; looks like a clock if you squint...<br>
<br>
...and as evidenced before last years TDCIR I have a stripped rusting sprint block on its end on a stone plinth as garden art installation.

I have a 1993 right rear wet tyre from a Ferrari F1 car as a coffee table. Was quite young at the time and remember wanting one for ages and then bought one at Silverstone. Had to carry it round for hours and it's quite heavy. Think it was used at Monaco, quite rare now as the tyres mainly get recycled, even if ferrari were crap at the time it's still a curio.<br>
<br>
Also got a titanium foot rest made to Martin Brudle's 1994 specification on a plinth which I made when I did work experience at Mclaren for a week whilst at school.<br>

Got a few of the posters I've had made up (used to sell 'em, a little) on the walls. Few smashed up bits of car too - mainly little things, studs, nuts, etc.<br>
<br>
Think the only real bit of 'art' is strangely an oil painting of a Spitfire (the plane), tis a goodun though and I do like it.<br>
<br>
I've got a spare set of engine bits and bobs now so I might MIG something interesting together. I have a cunning plan....
