    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.

    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

                                          Conversely, I don't understand the sunroof circlejerk. I've had cars with them, but don't find them useful or desirable. Why would I want the extra weight, complexity and leak potential if I could be perfectly happy without it?

                                          Being forced to have things I don't want in a car (size, weight, gadgets) is a bigger problem for me than not having things that I do want. This makes a slicktop a glimmer of hope and sanity in a world that is both hopeless and insane. Please don't take that from me...
