Anybody want to calculate how many 158 grain .38 caliber bullets you could
cast with that much lead?

And then there was the custom '56 Mg coupe that I spotted behind a house in
Pacific Grove, California when I was there in the Army. It turned out that
it had actually won it's class in the Oakland Roadster show many years
before, but it was in really poor shape. I decided that the best thing to
do was cut off the custom "split window" hard-top, and turn it back into a
roadster. I sold over 400 pounds of scrap lead that came off with the roof!
Honest! I actually got more for the lead than I paid for the car, and more
than I sold the car for when I got transferred.

You'll have to beat 30lbs. In an IROC practice session at Riverside back in
'72, Richard Petty got pranged in the left rear of the Porsche 911 that he
was driving. There wasn't time to do much body repair work overnight so it
was just pounded out a little and filled with big gobs of Bondo. They had a
bank of heat lamps to make it dry quicker between adding more layers of
Bondo. The next morning, a quick shot of spray-can Krylon and it was ready
for the starting grid.
