This Ferrari Keychain is Crafted From an Actual Vehicle Piston
Michael Hemsworth — May 31, 2016 — Autos
Although this Ferrari Keychain might look too small to be a real car piston, it's actually an authentic replica for car enthusiasts to ogle over.
Available from Discommon Goods for $450, the Ferrari Keychain is crafted from a 2000 Ferrari Formula 1 piston that has been salvaged from a blown engine. The keychain was created by having the original car piston scanned and then transformed into the miniature version for gear heads to enjoy.
The Ferrari Keychain was no easy feat to create and required that the team behind it use laser welding, oxidizing, engraving, buffing forging and much more in order to create it. However, the final product is indeed a piece of automotive history for drivers to keep on their keys.
