Oh man that sucks!  Hate to hear about that. Glad he was in the house and not working under it. I bet it was made in China.  Wonder he he can get a lawyer involved in this over piss poor quality problems.

If it was someone on this board  or a mopar that it happened to, this thread would be full of " I feel for you" posts, but since  the "Camaro"  was an outsider it seems the gloves are off.
I feel for the owner, It would be heart breaking no matter what was on the lift.

:iagree: That would be enough to make me sick - moreso if I happened to be under it at the time. Everyone here should know how much time, effort, money, passion, etc. goes into one of these cars (no matter what the brand) and to see something like that is just painful.
