I'm breaking ground on my Garage Mahal next week. I need to be able to accommodate not only my Targa but a Volks daily driver and occasionally a Ford Transit 350 high roof that we're converting into a camper van. I also wanted enough space to be able to work on another P car as a project. I live on a beautiful maple forested bobsled run (19% grade) and have to set the garage into the slope just before the setback limit. My municipality insisted on surveyor placement and engineer approved foundation plans - for good reason given my circumstances. I've included jpegs of some of the plans below.
I intend to install a lift (I have a used Mohawk A-7) but may consider the Atlas FM9SL as the van weighs in at 7500 lbs which is 500 over the A-7's rated capacity. The Atlas, though, is rated at 9000 lbs and has the advantage of no posts to contend with. Any reflections on the lift choice would be appreciated.
