We had a customer who asked us to build him a 24Kt gold TXT-1. This is the transmission. Solid 24Kt Gold and weighs around 9 ounces fully built and without the motors.

I'll ask the customer if I can submit pictures of their finished truck chassis. We are still working on their gold differential cases. THOSE are the biggest $$$ - the fabrication cost is more than the cost of the gold being used. Also - we are using gold plating to keep the total cost down. It is solid gold, but the plated gold material is less expensive. Just wanted to clarify that. It's still 24k and still big $$$ but one would be hard pressed to find a solid piece of gold that big to machine! LOL!
