The Cool Detailing Cart in Autogeek's Show Car Garage!

I get asked all the time what the heck that roll-around tool cart is out in the studio?

It's a Snap-On brand, Blue-Point Under Hood, Rolling Service Tray

Stock #: BLPUHST
Price: $170.75 plus shipping


Description
• 24" leg clearance allows the service tray to slide under the hood from the front or the side of vehicle.
• Parts dividers and screwdriver holders built in the tray.
• Protective bumpers included for top tray and support post.
• 3" heavy duty swivel casters.
• Height adjustable support post adjusts from 35.8" to 48.4" for the tray to clear the fender or front end of most vehicles.
• EVA pads in all tray compartments.
• Patent pending.
• Dimensions (fully assembled): 29.5" L x 26.0" W x 48.4" H
• Maximum load capacity: 75 lbs. (34 kg)



Here's a few pictures, the cart is a indispensable for shooting videos and handy as heck for detailing cars.


Holds tools and products for easy reach...

Snap-On's "Blue-Point" sub-brand...

I use the adjusting handle for sliding the tray up and down to also hold my cords when I'm not using polishers.

The legs are wide to fit around most tires and provide stability...

You can adjust the tray to raise and lower to fit most cars...

Here you can see the tray is adjusted so the bottom support frame won't damage any part of the body panels of the car...

Will it easily break down for transport? being that Im mobile Ive been looking for a small cart,or at least one that breaks down. I have plenty of room in the trailer but would be nice if the top tray folded down.
thanks

If you call undoing 8 tightened 9/16" bolts and nuts "easy" then yes.

It is made from a heavy gage steel.

didn't think of it before but depending on the width of the bottom legs i can just slide the bottom under my tank an the top would go right over it.

Might work, I can measure the width and post it today, if it's close it looks like you could modify your tank stand a little.

Thanks Mike. I appreciate it.

Anyone found a less costly alternative ($170 plus shipping) to this, or any chance AG will develop a lower cost replica?

edit: apparently Craftsman used to have one:
Craftsman Portable Automotive Service Tray | Toolmonger
but no longer available.

Griot's has one that looks to be similar for about $90.

thanks Autogeek for the info about the cart

I viewed so much episodes of Autogeek YouTube-Videos and was very interested in this cool cart. I contacted the german snap-on dealer and ordered one yesterday. Thanks for the info :xyxthumbs:

While surfing the web I found a new cart from snap-on which is very similar:
Snap-on Parts Catalog

What do you think? Is it better or not?

I can not edit my Post anymore. Here some pics of the card:

Oh, great! Another thing to put on my wish list! LOL!

 

[WAXOFF]

This is what I'm getting next. I currently have the 2 shelf version but want an extra cart and this one has 3 shelves. This is the best price I have found.

It's the same Snap-On Car. Blue-Point is a Snap-On brand.

Thanks for the reply, but I bought the Blue-Point also.

When you click on the link, there is a black cart with a drawer in it. It should be a other product. SnapOn ID: SOSTPC (not BLPUHST)

Here photos from google:

Thanks for the update...

Could be the Blue-Point you show wasn't available 3 years ago when we purchased ours. All I know is the words "Bllue-Point" are on the leg stands of the roll around cart we use. To show this I shared a picture in my original post to start this thread...
