Along with "How to organise tickets for Japfest...."? (sorry)

Maybe I'll pull it apart, take all the measurements and make a plan. Only I havent got any decent drawing software with which to actually draw it (apart from Visio at work). Something to do during a wet lunch (or 5) I guess....

Wow!

Here's my slightly less involved version:




The strapping is from some $6 tie downs and simply hooks to the shackle below the bottom pulley.

Ok, I promised someone on here I'd post some pics of my roof hoist (a couple of months back !). Finally got round to taking some and upload to my album here:
Couple of months ago Mark?

More like a year

Looks great though! Good work

In the end, as you know I went for a roadster and not a GT... no doubt in the middle of the deep freeze I will be wishing I had one again
