Scissor lift anyone?

How much floor space do you have and what's your ceiling height? You might be surprised. There are some pretty compact lifts out there. Another option is to dig a pit. I've thought about that myself for front end alignment and work.

There hasn't been a vehicle in "my" side of the garage for 15 years. It is my machine shop / work shop. I've sold a bunch of stuff so I can give my wife back her side. First pic is when the car came home last year. Second pic is the space I've been able to clear. It's actually got a little more room than shown, and I need to move the bikes. There is only about 16" from the edge of the door to the wall. I had the chance to get a used two post for $700 and had to pass after I took the measurements.
I got a quote to move the outside wall eight feet, which is most the city will allow. $42,000 ain't happening.
