Drawing of Shipping Crate for Engine
Does anyone have a drawing with dimensions of a shipping crate for a Model A engine? I have tried to find information in SEARCH section with no success.
Thanks for your time. Cape Codder |

Re: Drawing of Shipping Crate for Engine
Cape Codder, I just got my crate back a couple hours ago from Antique Engine Rebuilding Skokie,IL. My crate is 36" long x 23" wide x 33- 1/2" tall with a custom made pallet and plywood inclosed . It may have been a little overkill, but I drive a big rig and I know how they take care of freight. I sent a long block engine in this crate . I don't know how to download photos, but if you have a cell phone I could send them to it, be glad to.

Re: Drawing of Shipping Crate for Engine
Hope these come through. The skid is 20"X40" and is 32" high. The ends are screwed to the runners and are 38" tall.

Re: Drawing of Shipping Crate for Engine
Two comments. I have heard of some guys going to their local car dealer (I think it was a GM dealer) and getting a crate from one of the motors they had received. They then modified it to fit a Model A. A second suggestion is that maybe the person doing the rebuild would have a crate to loan on plans for one.
