Hello All! I made this lamp a few weeks ago but finally getting around to sharing it on here. Overall, a very easy build, but finding the perfect pieces was a little costly.
The valve cover is off of a Small Block Ford, was salvaged from a junk yard and was all rusted up. I originally wanted to clean it and sell it with all the patina but you couldn't really make out the letters so I went ahead and painted it.

The rod and flanges were purchased from Lowe's, but the base is actually the water pump pulley off that same engine.

The lamp features dimming, motion detecting LEDs as opposed to an original old fashioned light bulb. I'm actually trying to sell this one locally and on eBay but no luck yet. I have 2 more in "production" now..
