Subject: Re: [Healeys] EZcarlift
While visiting New Zealand, I had the pleasure of meeting up with Ross
Osborne and he has an amazing ramp built for his Healey. Constructed out of
angle iron and wood runners, this was/is the neatest setup I've seen to get
your car up off the ground and set at the right height for creeper access.
You simply drive up the ramp, tilt it on its pivot point and fold down the
rear legs to secure the unit.
The ramp itself is only twelve feet two inches long, so once the car is
up, the ramp does not extend beyond the bumpers of the car allowing you to
move around your vehicle with no problem. The ramp height is fifteen and
three quarters inches high and it even has a sliding shelf under the car for
your tools or parts.
And when you're not using it, you can get it out of the way by putting
it up against the wall. I've got photos and a very simple plan and if Ross
doesn't mind, I will send them to whoever wishes.
I'm hoping to build mine this winter with the help of a friend (and his
welder) but I don't see this costing very much and it makes it a really easy
operation for one person to get their car up in the air and ready for work.
