Well Gentlemen, after living in Beautiful Sequim WA. (Diamond Point Airport) and NOT be able to build my dream garage (Neighbors, don't get me started) A good friend said I could rent the back half of his hanger, Perfect Plently of room, exc. price. I could put up a vintage stereo for the hanger. then the West Coast Cobra shows up (fell in our laps) Still "Lots of Room" Brent & I were laying on our backs working on changing the fluids, checking the susp, etc. on "Deep Purple" Brent said wouldn't it be nice to have a 4-post hoist, "You bet" maybe one day. Well: that one day came that night on a Email from a friend that does Estate sales, 6-pictures of a "Brand New" 8000lbs (Direct lift) hoist, the only car that was ever on it a 2022 Vette, the gentleman passed away, and the family wanted everything gone!! She said come up with an offer and get back to me, Long story Longer, we did our homework, and before we could call her back, she calls us and said the daughter wants $xxxx amont, which just happen to be $500 less than we would of offered. But don't think we got away with that!! We ended up spending another $800 getting it to the hanger Now we have a great place to work on the Cobras, a great stereo system, and even room when Brent brings his Cobra up, Cheers Tom.
