What would one do with this? Other than to own a piece of history or aircraft memorabilia? You say it's made out of special steel? It's heavy? Is it depleted uranium? If so, how much? lol jk

I think its kind of bitchin, if I were you I would hold onto it and pass it along your family, i.e. an heirloom type thing. Something like that shouldn't be tried for car parts, that lasts, your car won't.

Sorry to rant but my grandmother pawned cool heirloom stuff kind of like that for gambling money a few months ago. And well myself as well as my family have been trying to get most of it back.
