Hostile downsizing. LOL

New garage and finally making progress.

Hello all. I haven't been on in a while since moving and starting on sorting out my downsized garage. My first couple posts here were to say hello and admit my addiction problem of being garage obsessed and downsizing from a previous three car to a smaller two car. Everyone here had kind words and support as well as warnings of things to come. Haha. Anyway I have been working on the garage little by little and so i thought I would start a thread on my progress. The hope with this project is to have enough room to work on my toys and have room to move around them. Currently those consist of a 1981 Suzuki GS450E cafe project, 2009 Yamaha FZ6R conversion to the naked European XJ-6N version and a 1989 240SX track car project. Pictures will follow shortly so let me know what you guys think as I continue this project. Thanks to everyone on here and all the inspiration you have provided.

So here are some more update photos as I've been working on things.
Built a small table for my drill press, but I may end up using it for something else.

I didn't get any pictures of the tape and bedding I did on the walls unfortunately. I will say it will probably be the last time I do it though as it took me forever to do. LOL. Anyway here are some pictures of the painting coming along.

Man I dont know how many times I said that about shelving, counter or tables LOL.
First couples of years, the garage was constantly changing.

What kind of lift is that?

What is the story behind the Porsche and Miata?

What kind of lift is that?

Looks like a "Silver" brand lift table

It is a Silver. I lucked out and got that from a friend that used to work with a race team. Took it home for $100. Wish it did have casters so it was easier to move, but it works perfect. Tried to find some info for it stateside, but can't find anything.

Here's another in progress picture I found on my phone. The miata was a 91 that I had for several years. It had a fair amount done to it including turbo and other goodies. The Porsche belongs to a gentleman that owns the race team my little brother drove for in Germany at the Nurburgring. He keeps a few cars nearby and has us take them out and drive them instead of letting them sit. The chrome wrapped GT2RS has to be my favorite though.
