Back light lamp

This lamp is made from a pontiac pack break light I got at a flea market for a dollar. After cleaning it up, wiring and mounting it on a block it became the perfect converstaion piece thats use full.

1939 General Electric Fridge Belt Buckle

While looking for a land corner out in this marshy wooded area next to an abandoned railroad I saw a collection of old fridges and stoves rusting in a water logged area. After jumping from exposed land to exposed land I saw a 1939 general electric fridge (I had the same fridge in my house). After searching it and discovering that the only useful part was the door badge. After getting it home and cleaning off the clay, I used a piece of wire and strip of wood to make it into a use item again. Wear it almost every day for the past two years.

 

The other two belt buckles (back) front hood ornament off a 1957 Chevy impala, (left) a ford truck horn button form 1953 - 1975.

1929 Chevy headlight and Surveyor's Tripod Floor lamp

In Progress

While at the local salvage yard looking in a 1940s ford, I noticed this weird shape covered mostly in dirt by an ant hill sticking out of the passenger floor board. As I reached my bare hand down, grabbing the mount and pulling it out while ants and dirt fall away. I noticed it was an older headlight by the size that you don’t see that after anymore. When I was haggling with the owner’s son on a price the owner walks in and gives it to me for free for finding something special in a sea of junk.

I got the surveyors tripod while working as a survey tech which was my first career.
