Things are slowly coming together. Lift was installed last weekend, primer going on the walls, final wiring nearing completion. Thought I would share some photos. I am calling the shop the Bus Stop as my play car is painted school bus yellow. I have also included a a photos for it so you can see why it is the Bus Stop :)

The exterior shot is old and all of the drive is now concrete.

The spot where you have your lift looks a lot like one bay of my own garage. I've been concerned with the width, and not having left enough room to put in a lift without feeling cramped. How do you feel the lift fits in there? What are the dimensions of that bay? How much space is there between the lift post and the wall?

Looks like a nice space.

It's going to be tight Bull. The post is about 6" off the wall. If I had it to do over, I would have given up 2' of upstairs storage to move the lift over. Inside to inside of the posts is 108" and the space is just over 12' wide. Oh well, I can live with it since at least I finally have a shop and a lift :)

hey, nice lift. I'm looking at Challenger lifts too.
What model is the one you got? Is that the VS10?

My bay is going to be almost exactly like yours. My dimensions on the bay are 13' wide and 26' deep, do you think that is adequate?
