If you decide to build from scratch, here's what I did. It would probably be cheaper. This one is for a 78 and later. The first pic is a first design. The long brace on the bottom of the car goes between the two stands to keep the bottom together. It wasn't put on yet. The third pic is the new design making it height adjustable which really helped getting the car on/off. If you are doing an earlier car. Just change the style of arm supports. If you need a copy of the last pic, pm me your email and I'll send you one you can print. Good luck either way you go. :P I would suggest using an arc welder to weld it all up.

There seems to be a thread on this somewhere already, but here are a few pics of mine, specifically to work with early bumper cars:

No problem, We have been having to use the 4x4 on th truck to get in and out of the drive as it is too deep even for the Audi Allroad ride height adjustment. Just fount out yesterday that I busted a front wheel bearing so now thats off the road until Wednesday. Good thing we like working on cars and trucks :?
