Crate 375 HP LT5

[AirbusDriver]

When I saw this motor on Jerry's website, I decided it would be great to have and just keep until the day its final destination is determined.
I asked good friend, and Corvette restorer, Elio Martin to fabricate a nice looking base and provision to hold a glass top over it.
So, until its final destiny is determined, it's gonna make a beautiful table/conversation piece in the garage with my Corvettes. I'm also doing the same thing with a 1967 L88 motor.

So cool! Can imagine how awesome a beer must taste when it has the honor to rest on that table!

Yeah, that sure beats the shopping cart base I used once! LOL

A nice, unique addition to your garage!

Great table!!
The Bride won't let ya put it in the living room?

She's all for it, until I bring it upstairs. If I try to do that, it's goodbye to my manhood😁

You won't be the first person who made a LT5 into a decorative side table.
I harvested this off the web some years ago.

Very nice to have a 1967 L88 motor in the collection!

Its awesome but the safety side of me would have rounded those corners and beveled those edges of the glass. :cheers:

[viper107]

plus make that glass thicker with a frosted bevel edge... looks awsome!!

[AirbusDriver]

Good idea but, this way, it'll make it more sporting when me and my buddies get loaded. It'll be a race to see who is the first to split their head open :cheers:
