Greetings to all. The pictures pretty much tell the story,however let me just add,the hoist system took me the better part of two months to design and fabricate.The craddle supports are a bit "over built"[this is earthquake country out here in Calif.]Moreover, the trailer is out in my back yard getting preped for sand blasting and repaint. Wow, what a lot of work !!! So any hooo, step by step,inch by inch,the restoration process moves forward. Finally, once again,many thanks to Ole Red for all the extremely helpful photos of your Scimitar projects, as the photos you took really helped me to connect a whole lot of dots!.........Pelican Bill
