This was such a great thread. Would be nice to get an update. I hope everyone is doing great!

My friend has a Dodge/M-B Sprinter Van that he works out of. He has a generator, air comp, welder, and all of his tools, workbench with vise in it. It has interior and exterior lights for 24hr service, Its like working in a mini workshop on wheels with heat and a/c. The vehicle has enough head...

What a great idea. That is the best solution I have seen. Great place to store "junk" that you need. How did you seal the ceiling to prevent water in the storage area after it rains or snows?

That was fun to watch. Thanks for sharing.

Here are a few pics that I found on Rennlist. Porsche's work great on Scissors lifts. If you dont have the ceiling height for a two post or a 4 post lift I would get a Scissors lift

This is the best answer I have seen in a very long time...lol You sir are a very wise man

I would go a little further and find out What Caused The Fires and prevent it from starting in the first place!

Check out the thread: A DIY 4 Post Storage Lift http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=34840 It might work out for you or give you some ideas

The fire station caught on fire...lol well I guess we are all screwed now...lol Where can we hide. I just read that a few insurance companys that insure vintage cars now require you to have a battery shut off switch. It has to do with the old wiring and connectors in these cars are getting old...

If there is a fire the last thing you will have TIME for is removing your bikes, tools and stuff! I have seen a few fires in my life and never seen anyone move things out of a burning building. YOU LIFE IS MORE IMPORTANT THEN STUFF! You can always replace your stuff (thats what insurance is for)...

What my friend did was he built a loft that ran the length of his garage and was just wide enough to store bikes. this way they are out of the way and has them displayed. I dont have any pics but I will try to take some this weekend.
