Seeing this post with the engine stand - I am reminded that my engine stand was homemade.

I'm sure dad made it inside the shop at Chevrolet and then brought it home. I distinctly remember asking him how he got it out the gate and he said "...I painted it black and carried it out like a lunchpail".



At the time (as a child) that seemed like a reasonable explanation. I wish now I could ask him what really happened.
