<Are those jack spots really strong enough to holding up the car? I do
know
that for Porsches, with similar square jacking holes, they make this really
neat jacking pad, which is a round metal part of about 3 or 4 inches in
diameter attached to a square peg that fits in the hole. This allows the
use of a hydraulic jack and the factory jacking spots. Anyone want to make
them for the Sunbeam? Though come to think of it, the jacking point is
awfully high, and might not work with most jacks.

Do you actually trust those slots on your Porsche? If you've ever seen how
they attach to the inner rocker, you would never use it again! And I'm
talking about the "solid" pre-74 cars, don't even think about the rusty
ones!
I've always trusted a floor jack and a block of wood on a frame rail. The
jack receiver points on Alpine or 911 should only be used as a last resort!
