Need a new lawn decoration???

check this out... on ebay

"The Spindle is probably best known from its appearance in the 1992 film from titled Wayne’s World...
The buyer will need to pay for removal and relocation..."

With a starting bid of a mere $50,000 You can own "The Spindle".

One small catch.. shipping is $100,000 and some assembly required... I guess that won't fit in the back of the ol' MINI

Oh well.. no one placed a bid... shocking

If anything, the question & answer made for a good read

Anyone want to make another run/photoshoot to the Spindle???

The Spindle is no more... for now?

oh well... guess we'll have to watch it on Wayne's World now...

click link to see it come down: http://www.chicagotribune.com/video/...clipId=2448637

it looks like they're going to try to resurrect it since they saved the Bug and the BMW... guess we'll have to wait and see...
