Bob, I am going to look at mine and will give you a call.

Thanks... I had also sent a note up to Henry at IM... Got a quick reply back from him.. Who better to know :)
Is the IM frame based on a VW pan? If not, jack points could be different. I do NOT know; just an observation.
ADD: This off the IM web-site for the Roadster they make, should be confirmed:

Can you share what he said?
BoB Sometimes on these links you gotta either add or delete the "www." to get it to work.
From Henry,
No problem:
Center front under the bottom front axle tube to lift the front
Chassis side rail in line with the rear door opening to lift side (both wheels of ground)
Under the front transmission steel cup at center front of transmission to lift both rear wheels off the ground.
I hope this helps.

In case you haven't already figured it out, Bob, Henry's one of the good guys. You should have seen him disassembling Al Shapiro's Weber carb in a rainstorm with lightning all around and under a tornado watch.
Lane,
Yes, I found that out a long time ago.. Who could know more about IM Speedsters than Henry.. For almost a year we have been communicating about his cars. I would have bought a new one from him but for the screwed up California DMV laws. I know, I am over the hill paranoid about the DMV, but I didn't want to mess with the SB100 search. When the car Dennis was selling came up I grabbed it. It is absolutley as it was when it came from the factory and titled under SB100... Had a lot of back and forth emails with Henry about the car. I believe IM is as good as I could do. No offense to Vintage who I visited and found just a great company.
