Drifting
I can tell you this Rob, I am assembling the bugger on the stand and gonna put it back in complete. I should have pulled it earlier. Oh well, it was fun anyway.
Bought the engine lift for $100 today and got an engine stand for $25.

I got the heavyier 4 wheel, twin leg and I am glad because when the engine is fully dressed it is heavy and your stand can tip over very easy.
Just don't want you to get hurt or for any damage to happen to your engine or car.
Be careful turning engine!
Have Fun

The engine stand is top heavy
Wide stance helps keep it stable

Bought some home garage supplies. Floor jack, jack stands, telescoping mirror (to check trans fluid), folding tire iron, hand pump w/tubing to get trans fluid where it needs to go. Now I think I'll go admire it for 5 mins or so!

Pulled out a picture., just over 1 year ago - when i shipped my daughter my 84 Euro from San Diego to East Coast, after a complete refresh, repaint and just about everything else. Now she is being deployed ( Air Force) , so i get to go out every month or so and drive it and make sure it is ready when she comes back.

Let a customer borrow my car so he could get around while I worked on it and there was an issue with a tire.
But I fixed it and now there should be no further issues.

Putting in new heater hoses is much easier standing where the engine used to be:

Anti-tamper Plate
I learned today why they call it an anti-tamper plate. In replacing the broken driver side door opening hinge, I found the hardest part to be getting the anti-tamper plate off. I now have a plate available at no cost for anyone crazy enough to put it on.
