Lift installed! A few loose ends need tying together. Paint is almost there. Then the floors.

Rocky is very proud of the supervisory role he played.

Looks like you have a pretty strict shop foreman there to oversee things....

Can't wait to see the finished product!

First lift use was a coolant service on the McLaren. Aside from a little coolant mess, it went easy. The lift is great. I used a vacuum filler (instead of having to attack 8 bleed screws).... great tool!

So I have been casually planning a garage rebuild for a while now. Really it is a shed, 1 car plus an active workbench area. 18.5 ft deep, 16 ft wide. The plan is to make it 18.5 by 26.5 ft wide. Keep the existing slab, add on plus ensure the footers are deep enough. Over the last few months I have cleared out the garage to become ready. Today was demo day.

Another "Yay!!" for ya Jeremy! (The pics in reverse order threw me for a second, but only ONE second.)

That extra 10' will be a huge plus for you - night and day I think in terms of what you're going to be able to do. Keep us posted as the job progresses.

Thanks for the excitement, I am excited as well.

Since I realized that Carpokes hosts the photos I have been posting them from my phone. The order I add them to the post and the order they come out is not always the same, further I have trouble correcting the order. I cut one wall out of my screened in patio and that is now my "garage" until the rehab is complete.

Thanks @Tom

Had a visitor to my garage - my friend brought her new Cayman S over - she just had it ceramic coated

I guess this is now the “house of blues”
