Steve,

Stop da music. ref

A device for sliding under the car was invented years ago: It's called a Creeper.

All you got to do to use one is get in front of it, bend your knees, sit on it and lean back. pineapple

That new fangled thing can't really do more than the Creeper and it might even go haywire, morf into an alien creature or something and strangle the living crap out of you! Obviously, they are for well-heeled, asylum candidates who think a Prowler is cool. Heavens to Betsy. Agrin Mercy, too! dance

For the record, I have two Creepers. I either use nothing or a piece of cardboard when outside on the ground to scoot under the 41. When I can't do that anymore then I think it may be time for me to sell the cars and leave the hobbie. Where is the fun if you can't do that anymore? Agrin

I use a four post lift at home and a roll around office chair, it works fine. I pack a piece of mylar laminated carpet pad rolled up in the trunk on tours to work under the vehicle. I haven't figured out how to pack the four post lift even in the huge 1968 Impala sport sedan trunk.


Life's a long winding trail, love Jesus and ride a good horse!

Well!!

After those last few tongue in cheek cool responses, let me say

ITS A GREAT IDEA

Probably would cost an arm and a leg, so I will never have one

Cheers

Ray


Some say "Street is neat". I prefer "1928 is great"

I have documented my 45 years with a 1928 Chev Tourer, from 1973 to 2018, and regulary add other items that I hope are of interest to others. Your comments are most welcome.The story of the Red Chev can be viewed at http://my28chev.blogspot.com/
