New here so I thought I would post some photos of my 28' X 54' X 11' garage, and my toys. I still need to get heat, and a lift.

Thanks
Brandon Twp. is in Northern Oakland County MI, about 35 mi. North of Detroit.
I have a gas line ran to the garage, and I was planing on installing a radiant tube heater on the ceiling, I was not sure where I was going to install my lift, so I didn't install in floor radiant heat when I build the garage, I also made the mistake of only going with a 11' ceiling, so to have a clear floor two post lift I have to get one that uses hydraulic balancing.

Rotary offers a two post lift for 10' ceiling height applications. In addition the profile of their standard lifts are such that it could be placed between your trusses. I know of one instance where this was done.

Love the Opel. I used to work on a lot of Kadett's and Manta's in my day. Does it have the 1.1 OHV or the 1.9 CIH engine. The 1.9L was a screamer, but a pain the a$$ to maintain.

It has a 1.9 CIH in it, I haven't had any major problems, the car looks better in the pictures then it looks in person, but has no major problems, just a few small rust spots, and the passenger side rocker needs a lot of work.
