The only reason I ask this stupid question is my body guy thought the frame was bent cause it has a kink in that bend but it's definitely from the factory my allinment has not been done yet so the wheels are a little off ... time to find a body guy that knows what he's talking about ... He scared the crap out of me

I had to prove a point to him he was not happy .. The frame was measured before I put the front back together it just goes to show that even if you're in the business you still don't know what you're doing in the Corvette world

Alan not to hi-Jack this thread but I was wondering how you like those lifts? I was thinking about getting those since I don;t have room for a post lift.

Wood floors? Really? LOL.

Hi Len,
I like the Quik-Jacks very much.
They're a good option for someone without the ceiling height for a 2 post or 4 post lift.
They're easy and quick to use. They're not 'long' like the drive on ramps so access to under the car is still quite good. I also like being able to easily get the wheels on and off.

My restoration days are past so the laminate floor is easy to take care off.
It certainly wouldn't be suitable for a garage in which a car was being worked on or restored.
Regards,
Alan

Thanks Alan for your response.

I have been looking at buying those for awhile.

I was just kidding you about the floors.
