Impressive.
However I would suggest to the OP equal results might be obtained from a massive electro-magnet clutching the vehicle above him, so that he can work in piece.
Controlled with a remote, of course.

DO NOT put the remote in your pocket were you might roll over on the “magnet off switch”

Do you have any military connections? Veteran? Friend at a nearby base? Many have an auto hobby shop you may be able to use.
