I'm sure there are some who would think that it is!

But anyway, I would think that it's one of these:

topped with an upside down bucket and served with... silver cylinders?

That's a rear wheel hub sprayed silver.  With holes drilled into it, and the centre cap taken out, and something shoved into it.

 ;D Does that mean i win a prize  :D

I remembered seeing a pic of the sleigh a while ago, and i was actually thinking of buying it last year when it came up for sale, but decided, for my first C5, to go for a normal one  :D

Are you planning on driving it around once you've restored it or will it be more for displaying at shows etc ?

As you can see there is quiet a bit of work to do on it but overall it's in good nick ...
