Quite a strenuous time was had, wheeling the engine over the sloping yard, to get it from workshop to the garage. The crane had a mind of its own. A crow-bar was applied on a constant basis to lever the misbehaving monster back onto the boards. It's likely that if it had left the boards and sunk into the soft ground we would have had a 'capsize' of the whole contraption.

My good neighbour assists with the move


Hooked up the crane to the car and towed it up the slope to allow for moving it all across and in line with its temporary resting place. Crow-bar was applied constantly in order to move things.


Engine eventually laid to rest where it is close-by to the car
