      Here's another company that looks promising. http://www.gregsmithequipment.com/Di...ppro-park7.htm

      There might be a GB from a member over on s14.net that posted up on my thread about the lift.

        Not to change the subject here but I thought about digging a pit in my garage. There is a company in europe that makes a lift that goes underground and essentially you drive the stored car on to the lift, lower it under the surface and then park your every day car on top of it. You can use it indoors or outdoors. In the write up I saw in Popular Science showed this guy who installed one in his front yard and then grew grass on top of it so that it would match the rest of the lawn. Here's a link:

          This video & lift is from one of the companies I'm interested in. Here's the link, I guess it works again. http://www.aclifts.com/ BTW-that setup is pricey! I'm thinking more in the 2-4K range. Thanks for the vid.

            that thing is cool but looks like its pricy. it would be real cool if you had a basement then you could use it as a shop. that would be even better. but make sure you get some kind of ventalation system and soundproofing on your floors. i help design a house with a airplane garage in it and you couldnt hear a thing if it started.

              An auto shop in the basement with this type of lift is an awesome idea! It wouldn't be cheap to do but I am sure it would be a mind blower to your friends when they come over to see the game and you have a couple of cars sitting in your basement.

              A neighbor of mine actually has a basement level garage with a steep ramp from the street that gets you down there. Having a the lift would make things more discreet.
