Ira--

You might be thinking of Kwiklift--http://www.kwik-lift.com/

I had one but as Richard says it takes up a lot of space, is pretty
expensive for what it gives you and you have to work on a creeper.  I got
rid of it after a year or so and prefer to work with a good jack and strong
jackstands.

BTW all of my cars--the Healey, a Ginetta G4, an Elva Courier and an Elva
MK IV (the last three are race cars) all have low ground clearance.  I use
a low profile jack I got from Harbor Freight:

http://www.harborfreight.com/2-ton-low-profilelong-reach-steel-heavy-duty-f=
loor-jack-with-rapid-pump-68050.html

It has a long reach and works with all of the cars, the lowest of which has
only about 3.5".

Best--Michael Oritt
