Title: What are these? Mystery item at pawn shop.
Post by: sdkar on September 09, 2014, 08:01:25 PM: Found a pair of these at a pawn shop. May not be car related but I am wondering if anyone can give a hint as to what they are. The are cast iron, and pretty thick and heavy. No markings other than what is shown here. Any ideas?

Post by: sdkar on September 09, 2014, 08:06:35 PM: I know these may not be car related, but I have searched everything and everyplace I could think of, and I am stumped. The heavy cast iron is gorgeous and I wish my exhaust manifolds looked this good. Anyway, I am turning to my Camaro buddies to help me solve this mystery and allow me to sleep better. Some mysteries just have to be solved. BTW, they were asking $5 for the pair. looking back, I should have bought them. Maybe I will go back and get them...why, I have no idea.

Post by: Mike S on September 10, 2014, 06:57:04 PM: Now we know what they are for, all that is needed is a grill body, a propane tank, some Nathans, burgers, steaks and a few brews and have a tail gate party and talk about the Ford and Mopar guys (they bash Camaro owners anyways). ;)

Post by: KERR on September 11, 2014, 02:24:25 PM: well if you dont grill, you could always keep it in the car to slap a idiot up the side of hte head, it has a nice " handle" and perfect "flat spot" to leave a mark :)

Maybe i should get a set for the kids, to heck with a belt!

Post by: joesauer on September 11, 2014, 03:56:11 PM: I would keep these with the car show cleaning supplies......to use on the idiots that keep touching my car, or who wear those big a** belt buckles.
