From the first time I spotted this on ebay, I didn't like it. The seller also
had a PeeWee that he was selling for less than I would have paid for
the "victim engine". Guess I didn't get the joke.

Seeing a crushed Bee doesn’t overly bother me as they made millions of them. What I don’t understand is why crush it and then mount it on a plaque. To compound the conundrum, why would anyone buy it?
I don’t get the joke either Bob!

I can honestly say I have owned a few Black Widows I would've liked to do that too. I never carried through with it however.

But needle valve seems good 
Then need to buy list:
Crankcase
Cylinder
Crank shaft
Piston
Backplate
Glowhead
Propeller driver
Starter spring (optional)
Oooops... I almost forget fuel tank

Yeah. COULD be polished up real pretty and made into a nice ornament... maybe even draw a few bucks on Ebay if it included a stand.

Crushing stuff is a thing lately. It is only fitting that a Cox deserves a plaque. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9BtYEnrkg4 Hmmm. I have a 20 ton press. I would rather have a cutaway of an old worn out motor than a crushed one. I sold some old reedies at a swap meet and asked $5 each for them, but only got $2. If they are $15 mounted on a plaque, then I guess it is worth the trouble if you need the money that bad.
