Are those expensive? How much space do you need to install one? Can it be raised high enough to park a car underneath (assuming you have high ceiling)?

never enough over kill!



never mind a lift, I just wish I had a nice space I could park the cars and work on them, I have to sneak them into my own shop, then get them out when its time for work, otherwise they live in a tent.



Hopefully get the cosmetics on the car done in the next month or so, I think im going to try to squeeze the E85 fuel upgrade in sooner then later, this way I can get the car tuned once for both fuels.

I got to sneak some parts in between jobs at the shop, tomoroww I plan on bringing the car in, taking the doors and trunk off and prepping and spraying the jambs, when I painted the car originally I left the jambs original, now I want to shoot them over.



Going to also strip the chip guard from the doors as well for when the side skirts go on.



I will mask the bottom of the hood and spray the top hopefully this weekend as well- then at least I can get the car inside after work and just put it together instead of having to paint anything else on the car itself.



I sprayed the bumpers hanging upside down so no airborne dirt landed on the more visable parts, everything will get sanded and polished anyhow, just trying to cut down on the dust because my shop is very dusty.
