I'm looking for a lift within the next few months. Mind if I check it out sometime? I'm in Vienna.

WOW.... By the looks of your garage door tracks....

1. You have a high ceiling
2. The door must come very close to your car when you open it.

Re: My garage ain\'t pretty but...

The ceiling height is 10'8" and that provides 70" clearence for the FX parked below.
It is the Revolution Lift XLT series which is 113" wide.

The difficult part was locating a contractor to modify the door. They had to change the spring setup and extend the tracks. I thought the door was going to hit the GTS roof but there is about 5" to spare!

One last detail, the garage floor pitch is 3" in the 20'length.If the lift is level the runways are too high for the Viper. I will have to find someone who can make custom ramps about 5 to6' long to help with the clearence.

And yes please stop by and have a look. Rick

Looks great, I would also like to stop by and check it out. I drive through Leesburg all the time. I will have to get the door tracks raised as well. Interested to see what they did.

Re: My garage ain\'t pretty but...

Just curious... If you move, will you take the lift out?
If that happens and the next house cannot accomodate the lift, VCA members will get the first chance to buy it.

Viper John you have PM.
