Not got any wheels as I wasn't intending on moving it anywhere. Perfect size and height for an Escort do you think it will be of any use ?

yeah it would im sure of it basically just need to get new ones made of the section that connect it to the chassis rails, and possibly make the platform a bit wider.

Reckon that would do the job!

A cheap way of doing it is 2 buy 2 engin stands and then just make up a cross bar that goes into the chassi rails all in less than 100 quid hope this helps tiny
