[Healeys] Garage lift

[Frakes, Jim]

Dennis,

Bob Haskell and I live close to each other and find the lifts in our
respective garages a god send when working on the cars. I added on my
extra two car garage in 2003 and dropped it 16 inches deeper and raised
the ceiling so it is closer to 11 feet. Due to lot lines restrictions,
the depth is not as great as I wanted, only 20 feet.  So, when I have a
car pulled forward, the door cannot come up all the way, just enough
clearance for the Bj8 under and any of the other (Healeys) cars to fit

We finished a BN4 resto in 2005 and are working now on a 100. I do not
know what I would do without it. Since Bob is 6'9" his is a little too
tall for me but we work it out. (so is the top of his tool box!)

Mine came from Greg Smith also and they delivered and set up for $600. I
also added one in my daughter and son-in-laws third bay for the Mustang
GT Convertible.

Jim

Dennis,

I own two.  Bought one from Greg Smith Equipment
(http://www.gregsmithequipment.com/).  Nice folks to deal with and one
of their showrooms is local.  Bought the other one from Super Lifts
(http://www.superlifts.com).  Like the lift - I can walk underneath it
(6'9") but I could never get a straight answer as to when it would ship.

Keep in mind that the Healeys aren't very wide, so be sure that the
lift's main tracks/rails are close enough together.

Bob
