When you get a chance I would like to know how far it is from the floor of the top of your first floor to the lowest point of the beam in the roof. I'm wondering if it is tall enough to get a truck on a lift without running into a height restriction.
My plan is to have my lift come up even with my second floor to be able to use a drive on lift as an elevator to the second floor.

I don’t have the exact measurements, but on the second floor I can stand straight up at the lowest point of my roof. There is no chance of hitting the roof with a truck. I’ll take a pic when I get home of the second floor looking out to the lift to maybe help give an idea

Second story at lowest point of ceiling. There is roughly six feet or more of clearance.

Hope these help give an idea of what you were asking

Ha. I thought the lift needed a little flair so I added just a few stickers. I left off the manufacturer’s decals
I'm 1/5th owner of a lift we put in my buddies place. It is plastered with the stickers we get with our parts.

We do not, however, have an I meth sticker.

Finally the lights are wired and they are bright. I really only need one row to light up the whole place. The lights are UFO high bay lights and there are 9 total. A few more things to wrap up on the electrician side and it will be almost finished.

My FIL bought this fan as a gift. I’m not a big fan of it(pun intended) but I didn’t want to hurt his feelings.

Awesome brother!!!
Coming together so nicely. I want a "garage" like that! So nice Todd.

I like the fan lol.


So jelly. I love the lights too.
I’m curious how much air it’s going to push. Maybe it will grow on me.
Everything is coming along and looking good Todd. Is that a roots style blowah on the 93 Cobra?

Yessir, Kenne Bell 2.1 Flowzilla. The 93 is filthy but I don’t want to cover it until it’s washed.
I’m removing the Supercharger and sending it to KB for a rebuild. I’m going to replace the valve cover gaskets and clutch as well. I just ordered a transmission jack today to tackle that job.
