Winter Storage Space
Finally got both my Camaros inside for storage .
I always had the 2010 inside but had to find a way to double up my storage space . I had friends who payed for storage threw ads and friend of a friend kinda deals . And had heard some horror stories . One was as minnor as he came over to pick it up in the spring time and parts were missing . Another was dings and scratchs that were never on the car before . Another was the guy lost his house to the bank and he had to pay fees to the bank to get his car back . So aside from buying myself a half million dollar house with a four car garage . I invested about 5k and got ..... Two storage carlifts and so far loving it . |

To be honest , I barely was able to pull it off .
I had to buy three new garage doors (The third door is one that drives out to the backyard) . And my new doors are maxed out as high as they can roll up. My 2010 barely fits under the lift . Case in point I hit my head getting out off car on the lift like three times already . And if I wanna lift the cars any higher I can , but I can not open the doors because they would hit the cars on top . Yeah, sad thing is my brother has moved into an appartment so I think my 84 Trans am has to stay in the driveway so he can put his 71 Gtx in doors . And theres no way My Grandpa Tbird is going outside it is mint . That and my family would kill me , the 57 Tbird you see in the one picture on top of the hoist on the left . It was my great Grandfather's car from brand new and give to my Grandpa , and then give to me and my brother when he passed in 07 . So story of my life , I keep making more indoor parking only to need more within a year hehe . |

Carlift.ca worked out great .
Takes about 3 to 4 guys and a day to put one up . Or you can always pay someone I was quoted like 700 for install . Ended up just doing it with my brother and a buddy instead . They normally have deals from other guys if you goto the Performance World show in the westend. Its Normally on at end of Feb being of march . |

I've always liked the idea of storing my OH-TEN SIM (TRADED IN) now soon 2 Be 2011 CGM/IO/Vert close to home and drive my daily under. I think, I have the height; from ceiling to the upper Camaro how much space is needed and from floor to bottom of Beater BEE is necessary? I thank you for the Pics . . . REAL Real Nice EH!!!! |
