Then we had to build a ramp to coast the engine and cart down off his patio, onto grass, and then onto the driveway. Then we rebuilt the hoist and raised the engine.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"New 345, ready to move by idiot king, on Flickr\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/idiotking\/10410174963\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/farm4.staticflickr.com\/3699\/10410174963_486705deb7_b.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"New 345, ready to move\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Then we scooted the Scout under it and ratcheted it down with four straps.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Into the Scout by idiot king, on Flickr\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/idiotking\/10410026955\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/farm3.staticflickr.com\/2888\/10410026955_3f23cc3f51_b.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Into the Scout\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The engine hoist got broken down and shoved into the back of Brian&#8217;s Prius.
