get a big ricer wing for the head board. Preferably one with many levels in the wing so you can use them as shelves for an alarm clock and other nick-nacks. get a front bumber/fascia and use that as the end of your bed. Make the legs of the bed using NOS tanks. To complete your new bedroom, see if you can make a spinner rim ceiling fan.

um, you aint married are ya? My wife would beat me, divorce me, then laugh at the idea. If you're single, DO IT NOW! lol. If you are married, where the heck you find her, I wanna trade!
P.S., my wife just slugged me for this response (do it. now)

Tbat, what you're suggesting is that this grown-(butt) man get himself a car bed like in elementary? Thats flippin cool. That way when his kid leaves cribs behind, he and his kid can have races through the house using the bed he made and the Fisher-Price bed the kid's got...

There was a guy on CGP that had the back end of a GP and he turned it into a couch. I wish I had saved the pictures; it was sweeeeet. Anyway, you guys need to clone some of my DNA or something; might solve your wife/girlfriend-doesn't-like-the-car-and-toys-with-motors problem.
