Loading machinery

Lifting heavy things is always fun
The shear weighs 700 pounds so not super serious
Sure didn't want to drop it

Paul and Zach, update

Got the rebuilt SBC mounted in the chassis.
hard to beat the look of finned valve covers and rams horn exhaust manifolds
good old mechanical fuel pump, looks like a small cap HEI , nice !

 
SBC and a five speed, perfect combo
 

Whitewalls always add some class to a fenderless hot rod. And the 50 caps with paint detail look great
fantastic choice for rolling stock guys !
