What kind of lift is that and what is the ceiling height?

I am building a house and should be in it soon. I have several companies brouchures on the way, but haven't got any good numbers on high I'll be able to lift my cars.

I have a 9 ft garage door with 11 foot ceilings.

Exactly just do that and put like 250,000miles on that gt and when people see your odometer be like "yeah its my DD you should see my other car" lol

nice car my friend really wants one he just doesnt want to lay out the money till he finshes his other projects and gets a bigger garage. I guess 1600 SQ FT just isnt big enough.

The pics arent very good, just what I had on my work computer. Ill try to get some good ones later. We are also in the process of insulating it.

30x60, 4bays, 9ft doors, 15 ft ceilings, two post lift. The floor, well a buddy of mine got a little bored and painted it that way. You can see it but in the center there is a huge skull with some various cracks and stuff around it. All hand painted with small paint brushes.
