kjlnugent Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 This is my first post here and i am a mechanic for a living and i like making models in my spare time. i havent found anything about so i was wondering if anyone has made a functioning lift for cars. one similar to the ones in actual mechanic shops. Thanks
bbowser Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 (edited) There's a lift like that in the Fujimi 'Garage & Tools' set in 1/24 scale. I doubt that it functions but with a little ingenuity....? (It's not shown on the box but it's in there) Edited February 8, 2012 by bbowser

road_warrior05 Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 I used to be a tech and that blue Super Lift looks exactly like the ones I was working under for 10hrs a day
kjlnugent Posted February 9, 2012 Author Posted February 9, 2012 yeah its like the ones i use also. which makes it even better just trying to find a model size now

(It's not shown on the box but it's in there) I have this kit too for a diorama I was planning on doing someday, the lift in this kit does move up and down though.. some pretty nice pieces in it also...

Guest Sickfish Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 trying to sell it? I've got this kit too... Haven't even looked inside, didn't know it had a lift?! Might have to go take a peep ;-) Cliffo
Guest Sickfish Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 Here's some pics of it.... True enough, the instructions say... Power lift & it doe's work!
turn1wonder Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 GMP Super Lift on ebay, about what I paid for mine... http://www.ebay.com/itm/GMP-1-24-SCALE-SUPER-LIFT-NIB-/180814653611?pt=Diecast_Vehicles&hash=item2a1964a8ab ...other places... http://www.toyhabit.com/die_cast_model_accesories.html Bob
espo Posted February 9, 2012 Posted February 9, 2012 Some one over on the Diorama section has a garage scene where he has a functioning lift and rollup garage doors. Might give you some ideas.
