Seek opinions on best parking lifts for garage?

I am moving, and the new garage has upside clearance about 94 inches above the concrete floor. I own an 85 coupe and a 64 356 Cab. Does anyone have experience with a lift where I can park one above the other? Any brand of lift to recommend? Thanks

Couple of good discussions here on lifts just do a quick search. But it looks like you have less than eight feet clearance, your options will be very limited. Typically with that kind of clearance the best you can do is a scissor lift. Don't think, and I could be wrong, you'll fit a decent four poster in there to allow over/under storage.

I have a Revolution lift by Rotary ( https://www2.rotarylift.com/products/revolution/ ). I am very happy with it. The only real drawback is there isn't enough clearance between the ramps to drop the engine!
