Default An uplifting experience...

The roof has been raised.... Woo Hoo!!!

I've already serviced a couple of cars, (my Dad's Berlina and my Ute) both LS1's of course...

I don't know how I ever lived without it! The years will no longer be known to me as BC or AD, it will now be BH and AH....

Here's a few pics...

Before


After


Car Stacking


Now it's time to get back into some serious Cobra building!!!

That would be after you've bolted the hoist to the ground right!!

Very jealous of your setup, would be very handy to have.

The only problem with storing another car on the hoist above the cobra is if the top car has an oil leak it will drip all over the cobra.

But never the less a problem I wouldn't mind having.

I could use a 4 poster.

That looks great bobby. I'm going to have to do something like that with my shed. I really want a hoist.

Cheers

Yeah, get it bolted to the floor. We don't want you to be the "other guy" in the Backyard Buddy comercials: the one with the collasped lift with the car crashed down on the Cobra.

Get you some flourescent lights for that shop, so we can see better. Get some with the "electronic ballast": they will light at zero degrees. They won't keep you warm, but you can see how to light the heater on a cold morning!

Good stuff Bobby.
But you are just too far away for a bit of hoist loaning.

I was waiting for that!!! That's just our backyard "Studio apartment"...

BBQ (or get together) will perhaps be in a couple of weeks.... I've had my parents here for a few weeks, so I've been busy entertaining!!!
