But if I had some spare cash and it had a title I probably would have.

$500 worth of awesome. I'd leave the stump right where it is.

Brings new meaning to having a large trunk...Or 'frunk' as the case may be.

Over a number of years, I watch a tree slowly do that to the front bumper on an old Diamond T truck at my grandfathers farm. While that one did fully envelop the bumper, judging by the awesome size of the stump pictured, this one looks to have been at it for appreciably longer. I like how they trimmed it only enough to get the hood to close.

I once went to look at a 50's small Hemi in a guys back yard.  The poplar tree growing through the spark plug hole in the valve cover on the ground made me pass it up.

I’m the back, where most cars have a trunk, this Dodge has a trunk.  And in front, where most cars have an engine, this Dodge has...a trunk.

I would post in here (or should I say, "wood" post in here) to find out which one of you hacks is a wicked-talented wood carver/artist and turn that stump into a wood sculpture and drive it every day.

When you show up late to a thread and Alder good tree puns have already been taken.

I would also have to change the PRNDL to BRNDL.  That way I'd be putting it in Bark when I stopped.

Think big. With a trunk in the front the 426 Hemi "elephant" wood fit with some generous carving.

In reply to oldopelguy :

Linseed for sure. Poly is much too modern looking.
