Default Lift?

Anyone have a lift within a couple hours of Atlanta?

I rebuilt my engine and transmission, but forgot to throw the exhaust back on and don't have a way to get the car that high. Called local shops and they all wanted over $100 just to lift the car, which seems crazy to me. I'm absolutely willing to throw some money folks' way, or buy a beer/lunch, but $100 to jack the car up?

Thanks,
-Kyle

Ended up getting a friend in Marietta to help me out, but if you want a hand setting up the lift in Athens (where I grew up, actually), I'd gladly give a hand.
