Garage Photo thread

Man, I would love to have a lift in the Man Cave. Ceilings are way to low.

Here are a couple of ours before a slight re-model. Re-model included replacing the Saleen pictured with the new Hot Rod. Some may spot my "other" hobby. LOL.

I realized the site I linked requires an account to view pics. I uploaded a few so they can be seen here. Its a 24 x32 detached with a 3/4 width loft. The ceiling is vaulted in the other 1/4 for lift headroom. The door on the lift bay opens along the roof pitch so I can have a car or truck lifted at full height with the door open. The 4 post lift has 2 bridge jacks on it so I can lift the car off the ramps to remove the wheels etc.

I would say I hate you But that white stuff on the ground makes me feel sorry for you. Now I will have to post my crappy garage.

Don't have to look very far to "spot" your other hobby. A lot of us have that hobby too. Nice signs and taps as well!

No limit. How tall are your ceilings?

 

[NOLIMIT]

Just under 10' ,118" if I remember right.

NOLIMIT...I have 11.5' ceilings and I was thinking about a 2 post lift, but I think a 4-post might be easier for now. My concern is that I won't be able to have a car up on the lift so I can store a car underneath it as well and still get my garage door up. I can't figure out from your pictures how you get your garage door up with the car up on the lift.

 

[NOLIMIT]

Top car fits no problem. The hoist and top car are positioned so there is no conflict with the door or tracks my garage is 28' deep so I have some room to put Hoist where I want.
The top car is set back to where the door when raised comes about a ft from the windshield so the hood is underneath the door when up.
My door is sitting around 8'10" about 1' below my ceiling with 11.5' ceiling u shouldn't have any trouble unless your garage door tracks are low, then you could always extend them higher towards ceiling.
I would definitely go with the 4 post lift over the 2 post.

If I remember right, my garage is 21' deep. I wrench on my Boss and 2 first gen Firebirds quite a bit, so I thought a 2 post might be better.

 

[VoodooBoss]

Very nice. What is the ceiling height of your garage?

 

[NOLIMIT]

Just a little short of 10' I'm not at home for a while to measure but if I remember right it was 118" when I measured up for the Hoist

The 4 Post I bought is 169 inches long and 101 inches wide post to post + 12 inches for the Hoist motor on one post, and 36 inches for the ramps that are only there when your putting a car on the Hoist. here are the Specs for my Hoist.

This is one of the problems of military life. By the time I get it to my liking, time to move. That or I'm renting, like here in CA, so I can't do much.

yeah I know what you mean I havent bought a house because the market if all over the place and I dont want to be stuck with a house payment if it doesnt sell.

 

[1fastang]

Thought I'd give this thread a bump as i know there's more that have pics of their garages to share.

 

[Boss1601]

No garage upgrades yet, but I do have a window. Thought I'd share the effect of the 2013 stripe

No show place here. Just a funcitonal work shop with storage.
