Was digging through the garage last night and came across an old MSD box that quit working a couple years back. I remember that at the time I was going to look online to see if it was worth doing anything with it, see if I could troubleshoot it and repair it, but life happened and I forgot about it.
Anyone know if it's good for anything? Refurbishment, turn it in to MSD for a loyalty program and a discount, GRM new years gift exchange?
Screw it to the firewall and it'll do about as much good as a functional msd box?

goddamn you, that is almost exactly word for word what i was gonna post!
There's a reason they are acronym'd Might Suddenly Die....
And I was gonna ask "Is there any use for a functional MSD box?" but decided it might be too negative

Cool pencil holder for your desk?
Gut it and use as a project box for electronics projects? Put a Megasquirt in it, build an amp and put it on your desk?
Oh! They are mighty fine upstanding wheel chocks!!!!

You could make a broach out of it. Or a pterodactyl.

A functional msd box is the only way i got clean tach signal to my megasquirt. Other than that, useless.....

Or, "My Spark Disappeared".
In for reasons why it shouldn't be used as a doorstop? Too good at it?

The wires are a tripping hazard. Would have to trim them.
