I am wanting a three car lift. I have done my google seaches but just can't find what I am looking for. I am looking for something to store corvettes so I dont need them to go really high and they wont have as much weight on them. Used for storage only. I have 20' side walls. Thanks guys.

3 car lift? I don't think they make anything like that other than large parking garage type lifts.. what exactly are you looking to do? lift 3 cars up on like a 4 post lift, but 3 wide? I've seen 4 post lifts that lift two cars side by side though

WOW!!!! I think you can see that thing bow in the picture!!!! I think I have seen them before in Dupont Registry and I had talked with a guy down here in Texas about building some for me and I can't find his contact info. Thanks for the input everyone!

I think in that double lift picture, it's not bending...rather an illusion by a wide angle lense. You will notice that the cement apron looks bent too. The top of the pic looks bent down...the top bent up.

Why stop at 3 levels? Give the VW folks a call, they have got you covered.

From VW:

The car towers work like giant vending machines: As a new car arrives from the factory, it’s transported by robot to an empty storage slot in one of the towers; when a customer shows up to collect the car, the same robotic picking system fetches the vehicle, brings it down to ground level, and transfers it to the KundenCenter in the next building. Each tower holds up to 400 cars on 20 levels and can process a car every 45 seconds during peak times.

I would think in terms of one lift and a drive forward onto set of racks.
Kind of like a car carrier without the wheels.

ahh, I didn't notice that, but yeah it appears to be lens distortion from a wide angle lens

This would be awesome in a home with a basement shop. I was thinking about using a regular four post lift for basement entry. I like this much better. I'm sure it's not cheape though.

There are a couple options out there. I did a six level lift several years ago for a local HD dealer. That same manufacturer has a car display lift and Bendpak has new 3 level lifts.

Shoot me an e-mail at [email protected] and I can send you info on the Bendpak version. Just e-mailed a client about it earlier today.

Wow! I also thought this lift was bending when I first looked at it! You would think, selling these lifts, they would NOT want the picture to look like it was bending! I didn't notice it was a wide angle shot until you pointed it out.
