Smile "The Bar"

As I sit here lookin' at my navel and thinking about nothing in particular, it dawned upon me that I need a Bar to spend some time at with friends that call! Surely some of you have come up with some amazing motoring "themed" bars? If so, can you help an "Olde Bloke" out, and post some pics?

I've seen a bar that had a 3D model scene of the pit lane at bathurst under its glass top, was pretty cool!

I have built a few but none car related, like this one

Yeah, it will. You'll need to use Photobucket or something similar.

I can't remember where I saw it, will have to ask Dave when he comes home.
But. I do remember seeing a reno on TV where someone got the boot of a car, and decked it as a bar and attached it to the wall. There was even a beer tap in it. Was pretty gnarly!

looks like a life time of collecting random things that non car enthusiasts call 'Crap'. where as people on here could spend all night (probably longer) having beers and talking about every little thing, And im sure most have a good story behind them.

great set up
