I remember watching that show, if I'm ever rich I will be getting some stuff like that.

I would hate to see what this cost, but it sure would be awesome in a man cave.

The prices are for the Elite ..

Yah know, cow rug types

The turbine table is definitely the best. I NEED it

They have (or used to have) F4 Phantom and B52 ejection seat office chairs for sale too

I may need a hand on some of the more complex parts... Anyone on here have experience field stripping a B-1 or a C-130?

My stepdad did an installation for a client with one of those exploded diagrams of a jet engine as a mural. It was pretty boss. There was something like this on the wall of a guy's kitchen, facing out:

I got to meet those guys.

One evening in 2004, Chopper and I were driving through an industrial area in Torrance CA, looking for McClusky's Cobra restoration shop. So I saw a couple of guys working in an open shop bay and asked them if they knew where it was.

So this dude smoking a cigarette says, "Cobras huh?" Then he drops the cigarette, smashes it out, and said, "Come on inside for a minute, and take a look around. Anyone looking for Cobras must have money." LOL . I'll never forget him saying that.

They were building a spa that utilized the round staircase from a 747. The had a ton of raw aircraft parts and finished art pieces. Chopper and their shop dog got along great. I got to hang out for a few hours and they finally told me where McClusky's was at.

I still have the MotoArt business card. I remember one of the guys in the shop commit suicide while the series was being aired.
