    ^^ THIS ^^

    After watching the video I want a lift more than ever now!! I have a high vaulted ceiling and can totally fit one in the garage, that makes the V8 Conversion look so easy, and maintenance so much less of a hassle !! Do want !!

    Don't worry. Next time I'm up at his place, I'll let him taste an LS3 then he'll be hooked once and for all, especially imagining a platform 1000lbs lighter.
