Happy new year all.

Im based in Coventry, looking for an engine hoist and stand if anyone has them. May end up buying and reselling once used as its very rare they will be.

Rebuilt my Pinto on mt B&D Workmate (which I already had).

Fortunate enough to have access to my Dad's engine hoist.

As you say things that get used very infrequently.

had my engine crane (hydraulic) not hoist (which i think means rope or chains) probably 20 years. Used it maybe 30 times. I'd never sell it. Every once in a while its handy to have.

Engine stand ..... used once.

Don't live anywhere near Coventry to lend me your stand then ;-) I think I've sorted a hoist from a local classic car enthusiast 😃

Indeed - I should have said engine crane (hydraulic) and not hoist. No messing about with ropes for me!
Engine and gearbox together craned into the MK Indy.

Hi, I have a one ton engine hoist and a stand ready to go. £125 for the pair.
