I did some thinking about this. I have decided to build the 600sf garage and completely finish it. If I feel I need some additional parking I will add the lean to. I feel that the lean to will be less controversial. If I do need winter storage down the road I can always park a car in a enclosed...

rburke. That's what I thought but they did I asked twice lol Thanks for all the replies. I think I will just build one to the max and let the dust settle. Then maybe proceed on with the lean to if needed. The extra bay is just that extra so I don't have to have it but would be nice. In line...

you guys have me second questing myself lol. When I asked about the size I wanted and was talked to the building department about adding on they told me as long as they dont get any complaints they will not look into it. They also told me they see areas where people have added on to a house and...

I'm approved to build the 600sqft. but I will be adding on the other 200 once the building is up. I know that sounds crazy but I was told by the building department that once they come out for the inspections they will not be back... I have city sewer, I will not have water or a drain inside...

I live in southwest Ohio and I'm looking to start building a detached garage. First I will be doing most of the work myself with family. I don't have a ton of money to start and finish it all in one year as this will be all out of pocket. I want to build a 600 interior square foot two car with...

Haha. I tried the "attached" method but my set backs changed and I did not like the lication. This will be an detached garage. I'm trying to get a lean to approved for one side. Once everything calms down after the build I might box that in.

The only issue that I have with putting it in the center is that I have to also store my 72 Nova and would like to have a flat area to work in.

I was thinking about a 24wide by 25 deep. Thinking maybe about putting one post real close to the wall. not sure how good that would work

I'm limited to a 600sqft garage and a overall height of 18ft. I would really like to put in a two post lift for service work and side jobs plus work on my race car and other vehicles. I will also need to lift a full size crew cab diesel truck. I would like to know if anyone has a two post...

anyone happen to have interior ics with a two post lift with this size garage?

Yep you have it correct. I dont think I will be able to build a two story. Thats why I have the idea to put storage about the lean too

Im planning on putting storage above the lean too. So the two story would not really help that much for the added cost.

I just purchased a house and I will be limitied to 600sqft. Im not that happy about this but I really wanted to live in a certain area. I will be putting a 79 z28 and a 72 nova in the garage. My goal is to put in a two post lift. I know with this size garage I will have to pull one car out to...

yeah I have a 20x24 garage on my house and I park the truck in the garage with a work bench behind it. I can just get between the bench and the rear bumper. To gain the space on the designated work area I dont mind to have min space in front and behind the truck. I would think 2 feet in front...

Thanks for all the input. As far as what will be in the garage and what it will be used for. I plan on putting a 79 z28,72 nova, 65 nova station wagon and a 2006 ext cab short bed 4x4 truck in the garage. The two novas will use the storage lift and the camaro and truck will use the other bays. I...
