I am using two of these, to keep two bonnets up and out of the way.

They've been modified by using aircraft cable to replacing the flimsy rope
with which they came, and some wire was used to secure the bonnets to the
grips at each end. Even with replacing the rope with cable, it seemed good
value for the pulley hardware and ends, as they create a mechanical
advantage so you don't end up doing a Wile E Coyote trick being lifted off
the ground, as the bonnet comes crashing down.

Subject: [Spits] Hard top hoist
Hi Everyone,
Is anyone using a hoist to lift and store their Spitfire hard top?
If so, what hoist are you using?
Thanks,
Roger Elliott
