Wayne: That's what I bought years ago (2004), for a Porsche I had. Worked great for that, as there's nothing in the middle of the Porsche chassis. Pain in the butt for a front engine rear drive tranny in the middle car (Cobra), but better than jack stands. Had to build wooden ramps to drive Porsche/Cobra over the hoist because their listed height for the collapsed lift did not take into account the safety latch which sticks up another inch or two. Recessed into the floor should take care of that.
If I had the ceiling height I'd prefer a two post (they have short ones now) But if you're limited by ceiling you'll be happy with the scissor type. My Bend pac has been trouble free so far !
