Interesting, but reading that green-on-black text made my head hurt.

Those are nice lookin' wheel dollies. I have 2 pair from a major chain. They're cheap and cruddy, but they work OK.

I have a question for the group - what battery tenders do you use/recommend? I went to start up the '66 Mustang after it sitting for 6 weeks and the relatively new battery was unresponsive. I want to use a battery tender to keep it charged since the car is not regularly driven. Any recommendations? I am not sure where I should even look for them...

I have 8 Schumacher Speed Chargers (1.5 amp) and they work great ($20 at Walmart).

I use the brand name "battery tender" version. Think it was around 30 bucks from summit racing. Never had a problem, does great.

Did i say on a lift
I should have said under a lift

These wheel dollies are the only type
i can use because it jacks up the car
at the wheel.
I have no vertical clearance to first jack
the car and then slide the skate under.

I use the inexpensive Harbor Freight
float chargers and have some battery's that
should be in the Smithsonian on display
because of the date codes.
