I'm pretty sure I've seen these advertised in the German Magazines, like "Oldtimer Praxis". Also search gogle.de and enter  Okay,. I just looked it up for you. Here is the company that sells them:

If you don't have a lift in the garage this thing is better than sliced bread!  :)
Believe me, I have used it a lot.
I bought it from this company when they bought up all the inventory from a California distributor:

I'm not sure if this is the same company but it was started in London, Ontario and was called  '' The car cradle '' when I frist bought one about 20 years ago. I never actually used it because I bought a hoist instead.

I also bought a proto type lift at the same company which we still use for pulling engines.

Hi Dan--

Do you still have it?

Do you want to sell it?
