In my youth, I worked at my neighbor's shop and they had what was called a "Bay Lift." It was an air operated devise with two long arms. The arms had nice big "cradles" at the ends. One had to only roll the lift under one end or the other of a car, put a little air in the cylinder to slowly lift the arms until the car's axle was sitting in the cradles and then give it a good blast and that end of the car would be three or four feet in the air. It was a lot nicer than lifting it with a floor jack and jack stands. In this photo, someone has TWO bay lifts.
