OK bear with me as this may seem like an unusual request.
I am building an altar to the Gods of Speed in my garage (I know sounds kind of hokey) and want your broken parts.
There are some conditions:
First, it must be free. I will pick up. I don't plan on fixing or making sculptures and re-selling them.
Second, I need a brief description of what happened that caused the breakage.
Third, it needs to be of reasonable size (no cracked blocks, for example) so I can mount it to the wall or on a shelf.
Fourth, it must be free.
The greater the carnage the better.
Examples...

Take a busted up fender or 1/4 of a rad support?

Only if there is a good story behind it. The Gods of Speed aren't easily appeased...

The car they were on hit the ditch, PM me if you want them or I'll just give them to the scrap metal guys

I'll take the fender if they were driving like hooligans.
Might take a day or two to get back to you-Christmas and all.

Do they have to look cosmetically damaged? I have a few things that look fine but just don't work... let me know if you want them

The Gods of Speed are men and thus aren't satisfied with reading porn-they are visual entities and need to see the money shot.
