haha, or sell it on ebay as a special edition item found in a long lost warehouse of 914 parts

If you can get about a dozen more of the single carbs, I'm told you can tie them together and they make a good boat anchor...

I think you need to fill them with concrete for an effective anchor. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)
