Whoa, both your cars? I see the reflection of a white 993 in the black one. Looks sweet.

Looks great.

I can't find that lift in the snapon website catalog. Where did you buy it ?

How much wear and tear on the floor do the rolling wheels cause?

Default the lift has been discontinued, but the new version is better.

it hasnt been a problem w/the floor because i have a sheet of stainless steel under it.

i use the lift every time i take out the car to clean the wheels, also after wash to dry sides of car. and for detailing lower body parts.

Doc,

You're killing me with this set-up! I've been on my garage floor for the last 2 months cleaning my car and this is the lift I really need.




Can you please provide some more information, i.e. how did you install the floor/material used, where did you get the lift (snap-on dealer or direct) and what was the cost.

Is this the one you have, and if so, some pics of the dirve over prior to raising the car.




Model EELR33AP? (Any manufacturers name on it?)

p.s. your car looks a little like mine.
