@Gordon Nichols Nichols, thanks for your reply. I lift my Speedster in front under the vertical frame piece that supports the doors. In the rear, I support it at the original VW jack points. I have a thick aluminum pad at all 4 points. I have a 928 jack that has a bump that fits into holes in the aluminum blocks. This jack is compact and lightweight.
The heaviest of my cars is about 3000# so I could use the 3500# unit for my daily drivers. But, it doesn't seem to be available for less than the 5000# unit from Costco.
I think Alan had a scissor lift. It would raise the car higher than the QuickJack but you would not have the same freedom of movement under the car.
