The lift is just a standard 4 post.. the marker is no longer in business but its like a benpak or dunmar..

The black car is a 68 pro touring firebird with a lq9/4l80 setup

Could you use a 2 post lift as a storage lift? I'd love to have a lift I can use for storage and maintenance.

unless you have a huge shop, or never work in your shop..no.. the great thing about 4 post is i have casters that when i do work that require a lift, i just place them on and in 5 mins, myself, i move it over.. and get stuff done, then move it back.. i even roll it outside and pressure washer the underneath of my cars from time to time..
