Laff... love how the roof goes down with the lift.
I wonder where this house is.

BTW I can see the video no problem without logging into FaceFreaks.

Well maybe this fellow lives somewhere where people are really free! ...and... yes, I thought it was a davit too, before I watched the video. Surely he's incorporated some sort of drain-to-grade drain system or at least uses a sump pump. I think an alternative to having the roof lower with the car would be to let the roof stay where it is and have a reinforced ceiling drop down with the lift, to create another parking pad when the lift is in the down position. Would definitely need some sort of mechanical sensor circuit interrupter so no one accidentally hits the "up" button and crunches a car into the roof. That would make a horrible video!

Yeah, my neighbors are sick of it. I wasn't able to get the car into my storage facility in time. The winter got here first, bringing with it its calcium chloride powder dust, salt/sand and overall nasty-ness to the roads. So, here it will sit until the spring rains clean the roads off again. At least the blue garage is bringing the property taxes down, I don't know why the neighbors are getting so irate.
