I want a 4 post lift but @ 73 I doubt it would be a wise purchase. I have some 20' lengths of 6" I beam. I'm thinking of building one of those tilting type stands dealers had to display cars - drive up and when you go over center the thing tilts so the car is level. I'll make it just high enough to work under comfortably. I've always used cardboard on the cold garage floor or driveway now I'm finding it easier to roll under on a creeper.
