You might be surprised......4 guys lifted the cab off my longhorn (duck soup). In my late 20's to mid 30's,I did some lifting. picked up a 351 Windsor for a builder(500-525 on the weight). The guys at the boneyard are asking "how are we going to load this"? Lets pick it up & set it on the old truck......well, a 185 lb me had 1 end of that Ford, & 2 freakin idiots had the other end! If you havent guessed it, there were too d@mn many feet on the other end(a couple of *****s too!) we got it loaded, but it was a little "spooky"! Me & one old stout 18yr old kid carried complete SB Chevs updown the basement steps(many moons ago). I did a box swap on a 71.....2 guys, off /on with a steel box! nothin like being 20 yrs old
