Piece by piece I made that thing like new. It was 5 to 10 years older than anything my riding buds had, but looked, ran, and performed better than anything they had. Took my time over the whole winter and enjoyed every minute of it. Self accomplishment. Nothing better.

Adam you need to quit selling yourself short dude, you are a mechanic and probably one of the better ones on UA-cam. Honestly this is the first time I’ve ever commented on one of your videos.

It would come in handy for situations like the lift being in the way, or not wanting oil on the frame of a vehicle. It was like 20 bucks at the time i bought it, probably cheaper by now but its HELLA worth it.

    He needs to add a couple of vw Beatles to the channel. We used to have motor pull competitions, some of the teams could pull the motor in just over a minute. They use a body jack. The motor just sits on a block, everything gets disconnected and the rear of the body is jacked up off the engine and led car is just wheeled forward. The original air cooled engines. The early Porsches and they shared a lot of parts.
