Re: Cool Clayborne Engine Stand
I like them...have a few here to.
Should have a drip pan instead of the plywood...real nice and easy to take out and put in the partswasher when done disassembling. Nice design with the hollow shafts letting you install cambearings and a cam even with press on gear. |

Re: Cool Clayborne Engine Stand
I picked up one of those back in the 60's from a junkyard. WE were running the stockcar back then. Been using it ever since.

Re: Cool Clayborne Engine Stand
I have an original stand (thanks Don Rodgers) but need the pieces that bolt to engine. Guess someday I’ll make them. I have 2 nice K.R.Wilson stands & would love my Clayborne complete to compliment them.

Re: Cool Clayborne Engine Stand
It would be neat to see one supporting a flatty.

Re: Cool Clayborne Engine Stand
These look like a slightly updated version of the Clayborne unit. DD |

Re: Cool Clayborne Engine Stand
Ok, one more thing that I have to build..... no chance that I would ever find original one.

Re: Cool Clayborne Engine Stand
Local guy 10 minutes from my house has at least 10 of these. First time I saw them he told me the Ford dealership he started working at in the early '50's was throwing them out so he took them all home. No, they are not for sale or I would have at least one in my garage already!!

Re: Cool Clayborne Engine Stand
I have Clayborne Engine stands BUT I do not have the adapters for the Ford engines. I would be glad to swap for a set or pair of the correct mounts . One is being used to hold my truck frame which allows me to roll it around. Any leads or help would be appreciated, Thanks. kerk from Ma.
