It is patented 1919 by Water Street Garage and Machine Co. South Brownsville, PA. It says on the little plate K&S FORD ENGINE STAND, WATER STREET GARAGE AND MACHINE CO. SO. BROWNSVILLE, PENNSYLVANIA PATENTED 1919
It looks like it slides into the side of the car to hook to the engine - not from the front. It has two steel wheels on the bottom of it and it stands around 3 feet high. Has a plate on the top with two spring loaded pins and the plate rotates. Anyone at all interested in purchasing?

No, it looks quite a bit different than that one. Is there some place I can go look to find it?
John, how about a picture?
Aha – couple of clues right up front on this patent . . .

Looks very much like the last patent picture posted by Art. 99% Thanks for looking it up.
Hey John, how about posting some pics of your stand? I'll bet a lot of us would like to see what was used back in the day.

I will try and get a pic of it. It looks like it is all there.
