Re: 49' Patina bagged in PA

thanks guys, yeah build the stand 4 years ago outta crappy material I had laying around. last week I cut it in half and added the back half outta better material and so I can mount it with a bellhousing. I suggest making them this way because you can actually hook up manifolds or headers and you also dont run the risk of bumping into a flywheel (which I almost had someone do with their knee). its alot easier to mount this too. Once you get the front mounted it will actually hold the whole engine up until you get the back bolts in.

I still want to redo it and make it all collapsable but I just didn't have time. Still gotta make a few things for it, clean up the wire routing etc. But it gets the job done.

I was a bit torn on even putting it on the stand because my frame will be done monday, but would need to dry, so realistically I could have it in next week. I'm just short on space too, thats why I wanted to just start it in the frame.
