Hello everyone, well after a years owner ship and lots of uming and aring i've finaly secured myself a Clio Williams motor for my Volvo, which i'll be picking up this Sat the 24th. Now here is where you lot may be able to help out, i either want to buy a cheap engine stand, or possibly rent one off of you friendly bunch out there, so can anyone help me out? Now this is pushing it, but a nice warm workshop to do the conversion in would also be amazing, but for now the stand will sufice. I'll also be requiring the use of an engine crane once it's ready to go in, but i may just hire one of these. I'm in SE so anywhere around here would be good. Thanks in advance

Oh i see, once i'd written that i guessed that must be what it was Tbh no where to attatch it to on my garage ceiling, but like i say the engine stand will deffinately come in handy.

I have an engine stand, it's at my parents' house at the moment but if you're still after one in a couple of weeks I should be able to help...
