Hi Guys,

PC Paul kindly posed the ad here on behalf of a mate of mine.

It is a real '4 poster' and was left over from when their company used
to do cars alongside motorbikes.

I was wondering if, depending on the power of the current 3 phase
motor, if it could be replaced with a single phase one (I'm guessing
there is only one motor)? Machine Mart possibly?

Also I believe the 'freewheel' bit is where you can lidt the car up on
the ramp then lift it again off the ramp to get all 4 wheels clear at
the same time?

All the best ..

p.s. This is a genuine 'surplus' item .. ;-)
