I hate to burst the bubble buddy, especially since I have restored a few pipes in my day and would love to give this a go, but the truth is there was a rule on the forum created not too long ago for this kind of thing.
1b. (Update September 1, 2012) - Contests Not Allowed
Members are not allowed to create and promote their own contests on this site because of legal liability. Any such posts will be promptly deleted.
I really hated to be the bearer of bad news on that one man, especially considering that I think I may have had a good shot at it and would have loved to participate. That sort of thing would have been right up my alley.
