Hi
I'm on a full restoration of my Taxi. Tanks to Vid for his precious advices. Whitout it I would never had the guts to start.

My question is; what's the name of the crazy heavy brick in the bottom of the cab and how can I make it look good?
It's like a huge magnet. See pics.

Thanks!

Ok I see. Brackets and bolts in the tumbler, nice coat of black paint on the brick and a good wire clean up.

Thanks guys!

My first idea was to replace it by a Tupperware full of jello with 3 double D batteries in it
