Stand looks great.

Wheels are a huge bonus!

But O man Im shocked that your merc has a pull start on it, Have you ever tried it for kicks to see if its possible? Mabey you could pull half the plugs to get it started :D

Re: pic of work so far

well i would have got mine done sooner but i just got the truck fixed 2 days ago :mad: ended up not being the starter (that i had rebuilt) it was a corroded ground wire from the battery to the block :eek: cost 45 cents to fix. But............. i alredy spent 40 on the starter rebuild (i trust my starter guy and he said it worked on a bench test but it was full of rust and needed a few parts)
