Needed to weld something on our $500 endurance racer so I concocted this solution. I figured you'd guys would enjoy this.

Nice.

I remember seeing one built with a pair of engine stands, they had forks that went into the bumper mounts.

I've done something similar with the forks on our tractor and one of my parts cars.

Yes, it's our newest LeMons/Chump candidate. It should be ridiculous.

Sean Korb of "Suprang" fame built one w/ HF engine stands. Looks pretty straightforward...
