Tada! All fluids drained, completely wrapped, and ratchet strapped to the pallet. This girl will have a fellow Rennlister back on the road in no time! And yes, it really is a girl!

I'm afraid to ask how you know this.

Guess you've moved on from trannies and mannequins?

I do that all the time... I do most of my work alone, far away from the main facility. My Deutz- Allis German Aircooled Diesel is my best friend.. Here I am using it to install the engine and transaxle package into my Testarossa a few months ago. It was too heavy to hang on an engine hoist 7' inside the chassis, so the tractor works great.

Had one... I got tired of it fast and sold it... picked up a blown up 360 Modena for the next F car project 👍

Buying a tractor to move an engine...seems legit. I can follow the logic.

Love the Allis Jake. Well, and the Ferrari too of course.
