      TBird's not technically on stands, but I guess I'm in this crew.
      I'm probably wrong

        This is where I should come in and tell you how to "jackstand" your car, but I know I don't have enough experience since all my cars are mobile at least 3/4 of the year.
        Escaped on a technicality.

          As of Saturday the old Toyota cressida better is my only one. GTA is getting new tires as is write this. The Toyota has a worped head. Haven't decided if I'm going to junk it or SBC it. ( it is rear wheel drive )

                I qualify with my 84 mustang. And I'm not doing anything "cool" to it other than a stock 302 efi swap. LAME.
                I am about 12 spliced wires, a fuel pump and fuel lines away from being disqualified from the glamorous Bangshift pro-jackstand category.
                The biggest hang up is driving a 100 miles to turn wrenches on it.

                      same here.
                      jack stands end up being a wheel. Can't just use any ol wheel..

                        Just this one. Its been like this for a while now, but will get attention this winter. Everything else is on wheels, this one has dollies under it so its easy to move. Got another set for the LeMans, both of them will get work this winter if the health thing gets better.



                        Had the winter beater up on stands for a few days, had to do brake lines. Man it takes a long damn time to do stuff when you cant breathe, and when it is freakin raining all the damn time. Lines are done, brakes work great, stupid muffler is rusted out so its getting a straight pipe as soon as I can get enough O2 in my lungs.

                          TC, the Camaro that languishes on the jack stands is purely by choice. Since I've known you, you have messing with other cars, spending money on speed parts for other cars. Whether it's conscious or not, you have no interest in finishing the one you started first. If you focus on that one car, it would be rolling under it's own power by next summer.

                              Well, my Charger was for the past year and a half, but I got the trans fixed and back in in August, so I'm out.
