I seriously considered using rotors myself. Did the brakes on the truck and had four 50-60 lb rotors sitting there.
Square tube out of the frame receiver, welded round pipe into it, filled the tube and pipe with rebar, total weight is 317. I could put two more rotors, if I had them, on the piece I built. I could hang more off of the three-point if I need it.Guessing close to 300 pounds?
Certainly looks like it’ll do the job!
Looks pretty good, but you should have had of the BMW showing. At least, I think that's what it is. 
Wow, good eye/identification - 1150 RTPLooks pretty good, but you should have had of the BMW showing. At least, I think that's what it is.

I don't know alot about vintage Chevrolet's but that blue one looks like an early 1920's series 490. Does that car run?Ok .. I was very impressed by your identification .. I call this the fun side of my shop .. see what you can do with it
Yes, 490, runs and drives great. It is a 1925 Chevy Superior K Roadster. I am the original owner. No, I am not that old. I purchased it from a dealership quite a few years ago that was going out of business and had never sold it. It had been used a few miles for parade duty, other than that just sat on the showroom floor. I got my picture in the newspaper and local news congratulating me on the purchase of my ”New” car. My wife and I enjoy driving it into town to get groceries or to picnics in the park.

I note the two dry chemical (?) extinguishers on the floor.
Do you invert them at least once each year, and wack them on the side, with an on edge short piece of 2x4?
I do that, because the dry powder settles over time, and briefly inverted, with a few side wacks, will free up the settled powder.
Looks like you have to get a larger garage or divest yourself of some of the toys. Please put my name at the top of the list for the 1925 Chevrolet.
That’s a good idea. I do Not do that. I’m always getting new ones. They throw them out at my work every few months. So i sell The old ones.
