Drywall hung. The lift installer was up there and verified the location of the posts. I should get the lift delivered this week, but install will wait until the drywall and painting are done so that they can drive their scaffold around.

Also, if you ran the numbers you probably don't need deformed bar reinforcing in the garage floor slab (considered a slab on grade). It is always better to have reinforcing though as it will prevent cracking and adds bending capacity to the slab. There should at least be welded wire fabric (WWF) or fiber reinforcing in the slab though.

We poured the slab 6" throughout that portion of the garage, tapered to 10" thick in a 4'x4' area under each post. It should hold!

OK, it is all done . . . including a really cool BMW logo:
Daytime shot: Closeup of the logo . . . hand painted by a local artist . . . probably boring work for her, but she did a great job. The builder surprised me with this . . . awesome builder! Trying it out on the heaviest car I have before lifting the 1M. We were doing some yard work today so I didn't have the 1M with me . . . Night shot: Night shot of the work space: |

So these two are off topic, but still of interest to car junkies like me. Our house will be in a home show before we move in, and the builder is going to have a car in the garage just to add some character. These are what he has showed up with so far . . . both are owned by a professional acquantance of mine, and he has left them in my house with the keys. Needless to say, my wife and kids got rides. Both are spectacular.
'37 Packard has its original paint, original motor and starts/runs beautifully. Interior has been restored. It has a start button: '56 Chevy Bel Air, all original paint and interior. Not sure if motor is original. I love a car that has a manual choke under the dash! Last edited by CarJunkie; 09-04-2013 at 01:02 PM.. Reason: correction |
