Sometimes playing this game, I feel like I got away robbing the bank only to get mugged while I'm counting the money.

Scrap metal ornament of some type?

I can see what looks like a webbing strap with a fastening ring; but is it a tarpaulin?

Nope, although it is technically an art piece from a Turner prize winner.

Yes and no. It's an art piece, but it's...it's more than that.

Stonehenge by Deller...is all I could find, but I don't see it, but that's my guess.

The car, from Deller, probably on display in the Imperial War Museum, the art object is called Exodus (?)

I do not know which car it is though ..

"The wreckage was salvaged after a bomb blast in Baghdad’s principal intellectual and cultural nucleus, the Al-Mutanabbi book market in the city’s old quarter."



If i'm right, i give my prize to Armistead

That's the one.



A car bomb from Baghdad, killed 38 people in an explosion in the historic Mutanabbi Street book market on the 5th March 2007.
Seeing it is...sobering.

Keep your prize. Armistead doesn't accept charity {unlike others}, I honestly enjoy guessing more than posting.....and you won a fair victory.....
