[Healeys] Getting Healey off the ground

[P.M. Pollock]

Use a roll-around "floor jack" - Craftsman has a 2 1/2 ton low profile 
model for about $50 - but be sure to place a length of sturdy 2x4 
between the jack and the frame lift point to spread the stress on the 
frame.  Jacking straight to the frame will dent it.
