[DeTomaso] Single Post Lift

[Steve]

I'm guessing you are referring to the lifts with a single post to one side -
like the one we installed 7 years ago.  WE LOVE IT!  I did most of the
restoration work on 5332 on this lift.  One post to one side, no posts at
each corner.  Here is a link to some pictures of our garage...
https://www.snclocks.com/TheRestofourWorld/Autos/RenovatedGarage/  Ours is a
Gemini SP-4.  Gemini seems to be out of business.  Here is a link to a
source:  https://aclifts.com/lifts/m-1-single-post-car-lift/  I believe they
made the lifts for Gemini...

As I recall, you are talking like $6 or 7K.  The thing we would have done
differently, if we had thought of it, would have been to bury the base metal
in a trough like 4 inches deep.  As it is, we drive over the hump when
parking under a car up on the lift.  Not a problem really, but would be
nicer with the base flush with the floor.

We also have a BendPak 4 post lift.  It works, but honestly, it showed up
with a lot of scratches and dings - and we got no sympathy out of Bendpak.
They may sell a good lift, but their "preferred" (which translates to cheap)
shipper and customer support sucks.  I'd go with Greg Smith if you are
looking for a 2 or 4 post lift.

Hi Guys, I'm looking for a single-post lift.  Anyone have any advice to
share on brands/sources - both good and bad ?

Thanks,
Tony
