NICE!!!...but you call that a garage, where's all the stuff that's supposed to line the walls so as to make using the lift a pain in the butt?

It looks great but fail on the clearance. It'd suck to have the garage door rails puncture your trunk or hood. Will it hit? It sure looks like it will. Put car on it and raise it 6 feet.
Then lets see the side shot. Other than that - I'm in awe. Very nice!

I think that there is plenty clearance. That garage is pretty deep. Of course, what do I know --- I didn't see it until after several drinks. :o
Can't wait to see the two KB Marauders stacked. #5 on the bottom right?? ;)
I guess the bar and 60" flat screen TV go on the other end of the garage. :D

Two Questions:
1) When can I schedule my Corvette for an oil Change?
2) What's the couch for?
Seriously, your garage is really coming together nicely. I thought that was where the tiled wash rack was going? I only wish I had the height in my garage, I'd love to have one too! Congratulation's.

Every garage needs a couch! It is the ultimate hang out!
What's the couch for?
Haggis

There is plenty of room for clearance between the door rails and the ceiling is 14' at the peak.
For all those haters.....:razz:
The couch is for me to sit down when I am watching you change your oil.
Bar, TV and other garage necessaries will be added in the future; a work of art takes time.
More pics will follow in time.
Rules for lift use.....bring beer and pizza or something to throw on the grill. Clean up when you are done.

I'm not hating I'm just saying it looks close. Show us a side shot of the Marauder on the lift all the way up. I'd double check it. Looks like a 10' door to me. 6 + 4 = 10 (might hit) Better safe than sorry. Hate to see you crush your own car.
I'm very envious. :bows: Congrats.

Sounds like a plan. Steaks with Mobil One steak sauce.
I'm changing the water pump and some lower pully's in the Vette next weekend. This job is too messy.... so my garage it is :D. Maybe I can interest some of the local cat's in some lime green kool aid :shake: OK, just (kinda) joking all you cat lovers.

I was not calling you a 'hater', the haters know who they are. I will get a pic for you. I would hate to see me crush my car too.....

Wow that's really really nice. Thanks for posting that. I could never put that in my current garage. Your whole garage is brand new then?? The slab and everything look new...
Duh! I didn't realize that the door guides are WIDER than the car. They have to be otherwise the car wouldn't fit through the door. :lol:
Hmm, I'm only 5 hours away... Pizza would be cold by then.. j/k
Congrats again. :bows:
