[Roadsters] Garage lift

[Thomas H Thompson]

I put two Stinger (by Axe, built originally in McPherson, KS, now in
Council Grove, KS) four post lifts in my shop in '97, and they have steel
cross jacking plates that allow me to get all four wheels up if necessary,
but also allow safe storage of four cars in two spaces. I built the shop
with a 12' ceiling, and 10' doors in 8' openings, so the openers wouldn't
interfere with the cars when all the way up. With modern garage door
openers on the side rather than overhead, they would easily work with a 9'
ceiling. 28 years and hundreds of services/projects  later, still working
perfectly!
