Jesus, just go and hire one. The pinto weighs a tonne so I wouldn't risk injuring yourself for the sake of $80 bucks or so.
Another way is to do as JoeyJonsey suggested and jack up the front of the car and just undo the crossmember bolts, front sway bar and strut top bolts and using a jack lower the whole front end in one piece, engine included.
This would be safer then trying to use some sort of jury rigged setup.
