I'm probably gonna throw it on Ebay. I have approximately 30 lbs of lead. It is perfectly formed in two nuggets attached together. Almost like it was casted. I got to dig it out of the shed and snap a pic. Any ideas what It could be or value? I'm sure a gun smith would be drooling, because this seems to be a "PURE" double brick of lead. I don't know why it was made or it's purpose.
All I know is I found it in a old body shop getting demoilished.
Your thoughts or even offers? LOL!

Maybe for a race car....
Bricks of lead were great for putting extra weight in the car in specific spots to help handling and suspension... just a guess

It will sell for at least $1/lb on ebay, even more if its a bigger complete piece as you say as it will have more uses. Nice find!
No not lead for body filler, hell no. That I know. I was a mech for years and know the difference. This is TOO pure. It almost looks like a rack on a woman...seriously lol. Two perfect humps connected together like a c cup..or maybe like in a egg carton. I will post pics later. I do buy the statement about weight for a race car, that makes sense.

lead was used before Bondo. and it was a better repair .It was used in a spray system was easy to use and didn't crack or peel.
"anyone who thinks scrappin is easy money ain't doin it right!"
