    No e36 disrespect intended but given the space and the existing rides I'd vote for a two or four post lift as next step. Maybe more than one.

    Hey if I'm going to be living vicariously through someone else's dream setup let's go big.

      The reality of this still hasn't fully set in yet. Hoping to finish the portion of the garage that hasn't been insulated yet this spring. Lots of cleaning before the barn is more useable.

      Maybe it's just me, but I'm having a really hard time visualizing this space. Is that garage front the barn on the back?

          A lift is definitely in the works, a bit out though. The last e36 is a parts car and will be in the barn as soon as the ground dries up.

            Any plans with the shell as it is rare to have a slicktop?

                    Behemoth and tall torso folks....

                    That aside it's an added weight of the sunroof and carrier issue compared to roof skin, at least on a track car you want weight placed low rather than high.

                            i don't even like e36s that much, and thats a low blow. the TI is 100x better than the abomination of a car they call an x6. (pronounced "times 6" because its 6 times uglier than everything)

                                Do you have plans for that shelving/bench. Or could you snap some more pics of how its built.

                                I want to build something like that along my back wall.

                                  Definitely! It was in the house when I moved in.

                                  I do have some advice... don't use nails to build it.  The previous owner used nails on it and with some weight on the other side it collapsed.  I got it all put back together using screws and it's solid now.

                                    I can't remember the last time I used nails for anything. I have to redo my deck this year because whoever built it was a dumbass and used nails.

                                      Yes. There was definitely a profanity laced tirade against the previous homeowner and his total ineptitude. 

                                      Anyways, here are some pics.  I haven't reinforced this side yet, so excuse the nails. Hahaha
