Default Need Help Finding A Lift...

No wider then 9' or 108"
Able to park another Vette underneath (while another car is on hoist), drive thru clearance of around 7' or 84".
Preferably picks up from the frame and not tire... or has the ability to lift the tires off the lift.
Can be used with ceiling height of garage at 10' 6" or 126".

Your help would be appreciated, I would like to install a lift rather than paying to store the car somewhere.

Thanks,

Mick

I purchased a few lifts through greg smith equipment in delaware. They also have a place in Indianapolis I believe. They sell some "off brand" type lifts, but they have DEEP references and in addition I know literally TONS of people using their lifts and have had not 1 issue.

I have a few from them, but the one I like is the ProPark8000 I believe it is. 4 post with casters to move around if you want. It doesn't need anchored, is 110v (little slow but it works fine) and is SUPER low profile to pull a car onto so no scraping no matter how low it is. It's a good lift and works damn good for how cheap it is. They also sell some really cheap plastic flooring...somethin to check out also!
