When I was a student, working at my dad's auto parts on the weekends,
I'd sometime serve a local backyard mechanic in his early 40's. He used
to work in a garage specialising in truck and buses repair. One day,
while welding a buses's muffler, the leaking gas tank exploded. He was
engulfed in flame in the 20' long pit. He barely has a face today. I
dont want to sound depressing, it's just my opinion that if you have the
moolah, a lift would afford a little more safety. Or then again maybe
your car would fall on your head...
