Looks good to me. I don't think it's going anywhere.

That really is a great color combo on that car. I think your other pictures were with the top down and the cover installed. Is the top black or white?

 

Thanks for the pictures from underneath while on the scissor lift. You do have more access to the underside than I would have imagined. Great looking Mustang as well.

 

You actually don't need those cross bars for a Mustang, it can without problems be lifted using the 4 factory jack points at the rocker panels. I also got a scissor lift and found a company selling 3" tall rubber pads for use on scissor lifts. I have be using it for the my '65 for nearly 10 years and it have sometimes been sitting on the lift for months in the winter.

 

The top is white.....Actually, the interior and top are more of an off-white color. Yeah, the combination of the blue and white with those funky wire wheels just hooked me. The long hood and clean lines really let the blue open up.

 

First nice sang! Second I like the lift setup. Thanks for sharing the pictures.

 

The lift is interesting being inset below floor level.
My issue would be stepping into the holes while working around and under the car.

.....that, or dropping one of the wheels of your transmission jack into one of the pits. There's a lot going on all at once with these lifts. But there's a number of safeguards in place. You of course have both cylinders keeping the car up (one cylinder is slaved to the other to keep them balanced), and you have a mechanical locking system on both platforms when you reach the desired height. I added hydraulic fuses to the bottom of each cylinder as a failsafe against ruptured hoses - if the exit fuse sees too high of a gpm departure of fluid from the cylinder, it locks shut, arresting the descent of the platform.....You try to stack as many safeguards as possible against varying failure modes. The lift platforms and scissors weigh 2000 lbs. There's another 6000lbs of concrete and rebar in the ground dedicated to supporting the whole apparatus. The hydraulic cylinders are huge for this application. That's a lot of metal and concrete at work here.....When lifting cars goes wrong, it's nearly always going to be human error.
