motor cradle

[Don Dulmage <big-d@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Last sat i delivered an engine i built sometime ago to TV producer Steve Sheahan. (Steve works for the Discovery channel and produces segments for Daily Planet show. Steve lives in TO (That is Toronto for you non-Canadains) Steve bult a wooden engne cradle for bringing the engine here and transorting it back. I have seen a few cradles in my tme but for the BB Mopar this one was far superior. It is on casters and rolls easily but wil stay put on a truck mat floor in the back of the ol V10 even at speed. I am impressed with this deal. He has plans if anyone would like them. You can find him at "Mopar.bravehost.ca" . if you need to store engines and beable to ransprt and move them this is a very strong and practical design. . I know it is wood and some of you  have an aversion to using wood but it is far stronger and works far better then the steel ones I have seen  that we all bought at Carlisle etc. Besides if the Titanic had been made of wood it probably wouldnt have sunk. Noah knew that when he built the Ark. Somewhere along the way we forgot this.  
Steve is a Mopar guy  but  not our 62 to 63 cars but a 69 RR although there is a photo with the headlight of my 63 on is website. He visits the Mopar messgae bards regularily.
