Topic: Give us your crap for Lemons trophies.

We take your old car parts and make trophies outta them!

Trophy parts want list:
Camshafts
Steel pulleys
Gears (trans, rear end etc) and transmission internals (shifter rails etc.)
Connecting rods with or without pistons attached
Rocker shafts
Crank shafts
Flywheel ring gears (on or off flywheel)

Other interesting parts like SU carbs considered on a case by case basis.
We don't mind if the parts are broken, in fact I hope they are. But please keep the grease and poisonous spiders to a minimum.

Ship 'em to or drop them off at Lemons HQ--click here for the address: http://www.24hoursoflemons.com/contact.aspx.

Email Nick at HQ with any questions.

Re: Give us your crap for Lemons trophies.

I have a bunch of explodicated Honda V65 engine/transmission parts across the street from your shop 14130 Washington Ave.  I should be at the shop until late tonight working on the rally car if you want to pick some up.

He's not joking about the explodicated part. I'm pretty sure the Angry Hamster holds the all-time Lemons record for Most Busted Engine Parts Per Lap Driven.

Re: Give us your crap for Lemons trophies.

Well, it's hard to beat a direct 1:1 ratio

"This is the scene where I get shot," Bronson said. "I have these little squibs that explode to make it look like bullets are hitting." "Fascinating," said Bergman. "I never knew how they did that." "You mean," asked Bronson, "you don't use machine guns in your movies?"

Re: Give us your crap for Lemons trophies.

Actually, I think the Hamster is below 1:1, if you include engines nuked during practice laps.

Re: Give us your crap for Lemons trophies.

I have some Porsche air-cooled stuff.

Let me poke around.

The saddest part is that wasn't the worst $/lap ratio we've had with the car.  We had one test day at Laguna Seca where if you count fuel for towing it was even worse than the $100/0.1mile we pulled of at the TH on Friday (Note: I'm including the tow back to the pits in the mileage because it makes me feel better).  Everyone should build bike engined cars...they're awesome smile

Re: Give us your crap for Lemons trophies.

I got a bunch of blown honda parts and go thru your area on my way to auction and deliveries will a 65 ft rig fit down your street?

Re: Give us your crap for Lemons trophies.

I won't be at the secret lab until Saturday probably. Yes a 65 foot rig will fit down the street. We have neighbors who drive 18 wheelers in and out all the time. My shop is at 344 139th St. in San Leandro. If anyone wants to come drop stuff this weekend, or early next week let me know and I'll try to figure out a good time. Again, really only looking for stuff (broken or not) from the list above.

thanks,

Re: Give us your crap for Lemons trophies.

There are Gnome parts in some trophy somewhere.  Bike engined cars are the best! 

Rule of bike engined cars:

Cars, cameras, and easy living...

Re: Give us your crap for Lemons trophies.

Yep, the Jerk Palace.

Re: Give us your crap for Lemons trophies.

We hold dearly the trophies made of blown engine parts.  Please contribute what you can.  We will when the whole thing goes up in flames.

I might just have to stuff a flat rate box full of rusty french parts and mail it to you.

Re: Give us your crap for Lemons trophies.

I have about 8 pieces from a 280zx head that I sawed into sections about 2-4 inches thick.  Basically cut through the middle of each intake/exhaust port.

Interested??

Wish I could help, but all I've got is a staggering collection of blown ford head gaskets.

Re: Give us your crap for Lemons trophies.

I have a busted Sentra camshaft to donate. Maybe some other crap too. Got to dig around in the attic.

Re: Give us your crap for Lemons trophies.

Chopped up head = yes
Sentra cam shaft = yes

Citroen DS hydraulic spheres?  We have several and are in San Leandro.  smile  See website for how we come to possess the dead ones.

Re: Give us your crap for Lemons trophies.

Re: Give us your crap for Lemons trophies.

I've got the most mangled roof section off of a mini you've ever seen. As in take a mini going about 70mph and drop it, upside-down from 15 feet. Also a 45-degree bent rear swing-arm. A few odd Toyota pieces around, too.
I'll see about getting something to you on a weds this semester if I remember.

Wow, a mini roof for the base of a trophy, sounds like that's the national title trophy!!!!
