The product is high quality made from Aluminium and Stainless Steel. You can e-mail me at stu@levo-artis.com if you wish.
What do you think about the product?
How much would you expect the product to retail for.
Your help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Stu

It does indeed.

Depending on cost and how storable (looks like it packs away, presumably for carting to racetracks?), could be a winner.

1). He's left the roof on. Poof.

2). It's a purple Elise. Poof.

Looks interesting and a simple enough idea, looks easy enough to knock together by a reasonably appointed metal workshop too...

STU160! Job on!

The only thing that looks worrying is that there doesn't seem to be anything stopping the ramps folding up if you are a bit sharp in the brakes, but that could just be the pics. A base plate on each foot would help and reduce the damage to the surface its on IMHO.

I'm also intrigued as to how the ramps are lifted, surely they must be lifted together but I don't see how. A spreader bar across the front would make most sense but I wouldn't want to lift my whole car on a scissor jack!

7/10 keep up the good work!

I have a set of the seasaw ramps which are pretty good.
Best bet is to use mac's pit coz it comes with tea!
