Story goes, me and a friend have bought an engine, just one from an old car that was going scrap, so we got it for nothing. It's nothing big, it's only a 1litre 4 Cylinder.

So we got the hands on full engine, gearbox and front radiator. We could sell it for parts but the cost over effort wouldnt match up. So we're going to do something a bit different.

I've seen coffee tables being made out of engines, but seems a bit old now. Suggestions so far have included a beer holder or something along those lines.

Open to any suggestions what so ever, it's not to make money, just something to do because we've got nothing else to do

Any suggestions?
I'd put it in a kart or something similar. It'd be ridiculously cool.

If not, take it all apart and use it for different things around the house, with different parts having different jobs. Or what you could do i polish it all up and put it in a glass frame in your floor

Lateral thinking ftw.
