Some of that wouldn't be too difficult to pull off. I'd not use the engine as a coffee table, though. Too damned heavy to move. Much better as an end table. Assuming you can get all 4 wheels, what you could do is use two of those as the base for a thinner coffee table, maybe using the rod/piston assembly welded to the center with some strut-like supports to hold the actual top. The engine could be a side-table. Use the tranny case as a lamp body and the steering wheel integral to the shade.
The other two wheels serve as the bases for floor lamps.
Pimpish, no?
