I had never seen the joke Engine Rebuild Kit that is just a rubber band in card packaging. Saw a picture of it last night on Reddit and thought that it would be cute to hang one on my workbench pegboard.

Below is what is being sold on Ebay by someone for $20 delivered and then my version of it. I stole the EMPI logo from the web and drew it in Paint program. Walgreens printed it as a 4x6 photo for 20 cents and I shrink wrapped it using kitchen Saran wrap and a heat gun.

Somewhere I have one of those from the late 1970s... they are at least that old!
