Kwik Lift out of business?

It looks like the Kwik Lift company has closed it's doors due to the economy (go figure)...By accident, I found this post on another forum:

http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c5-g...ft-closed.html

It's too bad. I got mine at last year's York NSRA show. I had been putting off the purchase for a long time, but thanks to my wife who suggested the wait was long enough, we ended up buying the show display and brought it home Sunday afternoon and saved the shipping. Now I'm glad I finally got one. It really has helped out in our Willys build.

Anyone else hear about this?

Steve

That's too bad. I use to have one and it was great. Wish I still had it.

Called them a week before they closed for some new casters for the dollies and they did not have any more spare parts...they didn't sound happy. Too bad....it is a good product.

Kwik Lift

I have a red power coated Kwik Lift with 2 bridges, 2 little starting ramps, and a new plastic oil change bucket with the big funnel on top, that came from them.
I rarely use it anymore and might possibly part with it sometime. I am kinda over the hot rod thrill after 50 years. I am in central Florida.
