Re: Took a road trip today !!!
I have a little red Harbor Freight 40x48 trailer that I bought for $150 and I use that to haul engines on. I plan on making a frame to bolt to it to give the engine tow hooks something to hold on to, so I can hang the engine about an inch from the floor of the trailer, and cross strap it to hold it solid. Then, I'll cover that with a tarp.Originally posted by shadetree View Post

Love the way those little trailers tilt to make loading and unloading easier.
That is a great idea , it would sure make it easier to keep the dust off the engine.
What are the plans for the new engine?Reflex paint by Langeman...Lifted...Tow Rig

Well today turned out okay I guess . 91fordfestiva and I were supposed to meet at Walmart in Cambridge , well just before meeting time he text me saying they were getting a ticket and would be held up a few ! So I went in Walmart and looked around . I asked him if they were done getting arrested and he said yes but now they had a flat ! Turns out when they got pulled over the left front tire picked up a large bolt and made the tire go flat . So him telling me this I rushed around and got a tire plug kit and some fix a flat slime and went on a rescue mission . Getting there and helping plug the tire , with the pump I had on board , another officer pulls behind to block traffic lol. Anyway we get tire fixed, swap goods and I'm on my way . Guy had a bad day but we were able to get him rolling Again and we both made it home safe !! I got some good parts from a good seller and down to earth good guy !New build on the way .Comment
