Split bumper? I always loved the split bumper cars.
And I had a rachet like that one in your pic and hated that fucker. I mean I probably have thirty to forty rachets and that was my least favorite. I traded it in [Reply]

If I may make a suggestion it is this. When assembling my car I built stands like this out of 16" 2x4 sections. Didn't cost a lot and well worth the effort. You can build them as tall as you want as long as you can get the car high enough to get them under the tires.
It makes working on the car much easier and stabler than jack stands and you can also see the car at ride height while working on it.
I stole this pic from the internet as I have no pics of my car on the stands.

He does this and little do they know he's got a 1200 HP twin turbo engine. It's fucking awesome and the faces of those in the truck are priceless.

As much as you are spending on those cars and with as much as it helps I can't see why you guys don't just dump 1500 bucks on a used two post lift. I just bought another one. Ten thousand pound two post aamco. Probably used less than a hundred times. 1500 bucks. The guy bought it to under coat cars. So there is some on the arms. Doesn't bother me one bit
It makes working on your old cars so much more enjoyable. [Reply]
