Bill I wish I had your motivation. At soon as it gets that cold around here all projects seem to go into slow motion. God bless ya.

Hell, I'm just looking forward to moving in a couple weeks to a 2 car garage. But at least it's closer to 60 degrees outside here in Vegas. :P

I had to remove one of those Ammco alignment lifts 2 summers ago.

The rookies that installed it poured concrete....top-to-bottom about the same size as your new pad. :shock:

I tried to find somebody to buy it....then, I tried to GIVE IT AWAY if they would only remove it completely.

NO TAKERS! :cry:

Even the newer electronics included! NO TAKERS! :cry:

Wish you were close-by, Bill. :roll:

It was one that had the floating hydraulic tables too. It was ALL in great condition.

We built a new 50,000sf building with all new equipment and wanted to sell the old 9,000sf building after removing all automotive equipment. What a ROYAL PITA it was. :roll:

Btw...that blue air compressor you have, ID to the old one we have. 3 phase! :wink:

Yeah....the RIGHT way. :lol: Obviously you compacted mother earth around that cylinder and finished it off with a concrete slab.

These boneheads filled the pit with concrete!! :shock: And that one was about a 4 foot lift ONLY.

I make that about 4 yards of concrete to bust-up! :roll:
