But of course!! I did put a tire down on the floor. Not even a scratch.
I have also truned many parts Spridgets up on their doors in the
driveway. Again, mabe just a scratch but no more.
Do support the car from both sides, and in 2 spots on each side. I have
had one pivot and fall while supported with just one stick. But I got
out of the way and again, not even a scratch on me or the car.
A mattress would work better but I'm sure a piece of carpet would do the
trick too.
Do this BEFORE you paint the car.
