I've always wanted one of these when I grow up:





I've seen them in use and they're pretty slick!

6,000 lb. Scissor Lift

I have one like the Vette's on. on in JFP's post but to be honest, I almost prefer a good old floor jacks and stands. If you ever work with your arms over your head for a long time they begin to feel like they're going to fall off.

I know it defies conventional wisdom but so do I I guess,

Scissor lifts

These types of split lifts have room between the lifting pads so you can work on the bottom of the car. Much better than the cheap type and still only about $2100. Go to Gregsmithequipment.com .

Tried to upload a pic, guess I dont know what I'm doing.
